We fell asleep to the lullaby
Of raindrops on canvas
Tree branches painted
Silhouettes for our delight
Frogs and crickets performed
An opus for an audience of two
Delicate, intricate lace webs
Adorned the peaks of our fortress
A clement wind rocked us
To the rhythm of the moon
Nature cast her nighttime spell
Again
(I used a quote from Langston Hughes as my Plus!
“Let the rain kiss you. Let the rain
beat upon your head with silver
liquid drops. Let the rain sing you a lullaby”

I love sleeping in a tent to the lullaby of rain.. you make me want to go out and sleep outside.

I like the idea of a tent as a fortress allowing one to enjoy the beauties of nature.

What a lovely night time spell it is,
a hammock in the summer – and I am good for a nap
and with the right person, all the more.
