An invigorating breeze greeted me as I stepped out of my room. The night sky was adorned with luminous speckling stars. Heavens’ grand display was wondrous to behold!
I strolled along. A group of young’uns no doubt enjoying their adolescence while the world slept. A glimmering light in the distance I saw. Tunes of faint laughter and hypnotic waves I heard.
The once striking blue ocean was now a mass of darkness. Perhaps the only thing that saved it from its somber state was the dancing moonlight upon its waters.
You might think me odd for wandering about at such an hour. But you see, it’s what my very being longs for. To be lost in her embrace. To relish in her untold riches. Oh, if only I could stop the hands of time!
A beautiful night it was. If not for my weary soul or having to rise early the next day, I’d choose to linger and be further enamoured of this serene moment.
