A Spring Night I listen to the lulling music of the trees Sway back and forth in the cool night air. A lace veil with twinkling stars embroidered in it Spreads out on the fading sky. Spring flowers close up their velvet petals for the gloomy night. Misty figures lurk their way from behind the trees letting the gentle night air sweep them off their feet. The moon casts an eerie fog on the mossy ground. Nocturnal animals make their way out of their dens and into the night air. I watch and lay down on the mossy earth of the river bank, gurgling itself to sleep. I suck on a white honeysuckle letting the sweet nectar drip down my chin. Enchanted air blows up my shirt and tickles my nose. I look at the twinkling stars above and slowly ease myself to sleep. I lie there, my hands numb from the frosty night air. Will I ever see the sparkling dew on the grass? Or the majestic greatness of life scurrying across the forest floor? Will I ever see fluffy clouds in the sky? Will I ever see daylight again? I will have to wait...wait for tomorrow. Lily Foley Grade 6

A Starless Night The night was dark except for the moon. The crescent moon was shining with a dull, silver glow. The lone shine of the moon was like fire in the dark. The dull shine of the moon was alone, which made its dull shine as bright as the sun. As the wind howled the moon stayed frozen creating light in the night. Diana Nerangis Grade 6
