The sun has gone down
As heat subsides
Fireflies dance
As daylight hides!
The moon peeks out
From behind a cloud
Beaches get quieter
As the boardwalk gets loud!
Peace and quiet
are enough for me
I'd rather watch boats
On a moonlit sea!

We are part of nature and feel comfortable within it. To think of it; our needs are basic, the rest are luxuries that we should eschew sooner or later. Nice work, Nana - siva
