As i stare out at the night sky,
The cold winter breeze flows in like a current from a hot summer river,
The stars they shine so bright as of a flashlight guiding my way through the night,
The trees swaying back and fourth as if they were to say hi,
The lights flashing over head from an airplane that's taking people home from a wild adventure,
The sweet smell of wood burning on a cold winter night,
I close my eyes to the peacefulness of a dream.
