Crimson's Lullaby

What a nice night
to fall asleep to cars in the distance
driving down the street
behind my house
it somehow sounds
like waves ebbing and flowing.
As the icy limbs of trees
clink and rattle into each other
with each breath of wind.
I lay in my warm bed
and let my eyelids grow heavy
wondering if there is anything
more like a lullaby to me.
