When the moon reaches full bloom 

the whole world holds its breath 

a hush that settles over rooftops 

fields, and forgotten streets 

like a spell woven from stillness 


But if you listen closely 

beneath the rustling leaves 

and whispering shadows 

you'll hear them singing in delight 

the night owls 

the quiet souls who don't quite fit in 

who speak in silence 

and dance while others dream 


They brew their thoughts in candlelight 

trace constellations on windowpanes 

write verses in fog 

and stitch wonder into the hours 

that slip through the cracks of midnight 

out of sight, out of mind 


They are artists of the unseen 

tending to what the sun forgets 

making music no one hears 

and magic no one believes in 


And come dawn 

the fruits of their labor glisten 

dewdrops of dreams 

and stories left in the dark 

for someone else to find 

like secret gifts 

from those who thrive 

in the silence between seconds
