With the buzz of the fan that's blowing a cool breeze on my skin,
I sit and listen to all the sounds of nature that surround me.
The frogs in the creek sing to me and the cicada's chime in on a lovely harmony, the crickets come in with their high pitch tweets, and somewhere in the distance I can hear the song of a bird. I like to think they are singing for me, it makes me happy to think this way.
Out of the blue a June bug flies by sporadically flapping its wings, such a spastic little bug.
They always make me laugh as they run into things, I feel their clumsy pain.
I am surrounded by trees, even though I live in the city.
And sounds of motorcycles, fly by on the busy streets nearby. A train is coming down the track, and it's right on time. That conductor laying on his horn.It's so close you can feel the vibrations of the train passing by.
And as it leaves I take a look around me, and what do I see?
It's the moon, playing peek-a-boo through the trees. Playing peek-a-boo with me?
The moon has always called to me. I feel a sense of calm.
My world has been filled with many emotions lately but right here in this moment, I am free of all of that anxiety. I am safe. I am one with all of God's creatures and their beautiful melodies soothe me.
I have clarity in this moment, I know that all is right with my world, and I am going to be ok.
I can breathe...inhale, exhale. Ahh what a lovely gift.
Thank you, God for this moment, my life, my peace of mind, thank you for creating all the things in nature that bring me home to you.
I think I can sleep with peace now.
Good night my lil lullaby friends, good night to this summer night, and goodnight to my ever so faithful moon. We will meet again, my friend, real soon.
Good night, June.
