Winter Night

Twinkling diamonds, shining bright,
Snowflakes falling in the night.

Velvet sky and satin snow
Cover the resting earth below.

Sighing in their sleep, the trees
Remember April's gentle breeze.

Tulips snuggle in their beds
With dreams of sunlight in their heads.

Come and lie down next to me.
The world is sleeping, so must we.
