No One Knows but Me

Stars glistening in the night,

the moon shining so bright,

the air clean and uplifting—

you can feel the night air shifting.

No sounds to be heard,

not even the chirp of a bird,

no owls hooting in the dark,

nor a dog letting out a bark,

just as calm as can be,

not seeing anything beastly,

seeing the stars in the big sky,

I go inside, telling the night goodbye.

—Briana Boggio
