Life at Night

One never really notices how the night can be. Everything begins to shut down like that of a computer. Animals curl up while those pesky crickets come out to sing their song. Lights turn off and people cuddle with their loved ones to enjoy the dreams that float through their minds. All that's left is the moon and the stars to watch over everything. With the soft comfort of a street lamp or two to guides those who wander through the dark. All is quiet and peace is to be had.

The nights have always soothed me, but here the quiet shatters with sirens of emergency vehicles that race through the town. I guess for some the night is not as peaceful as it seems.
