The Bliss of the Night

The darkness of night gives a lot of solitude,
away from the hustle-bustle of people it's a good time to show life some gratitude.

You can just enjoy the cool air,
without the world's care.

The silence is so dense,
that the tick-tick of the clock becomes a bit intense,
you can feel your heart beat in peace,
because there's nothing else in this moment that you miss.

Cicadas and crickets produce the music of nature,
listening to it our soul gets nurtured.

'Meaning of life & reason for our existence' is searched by the ever curious mind,
questions are deeper than the oceans while the answers are nowhere in sight.

The occasional sound of vehicles running on some distant road feels so calming,
it slowly reminds us that time never stops like some silent warning.

So, we just sit there embracing the bliss of the night,
because we know that the light will bring with it all the responsibilities & expectations, wrongs & rights.
