Today's word is "nocturne" ... NOK-turn ... Music. a piece appropriate to the night or evening. (Dictionary.com)
Rest
Oh, for a simple nocturne,
While I fall asleep,
To soothe away my worries,
As peaceful thoughts I keep.
A pleasant little melody,
Into whose notes I'd slip,
Calming, sighing, breathing,
A smile upon my lips.
But listening to the raindrops,
Or breezes in the trees,
Brings an even deeper peace,
Than the musician's key.
