A Crystal Flutter

From the night sky it whispers to me when dreadful dreams demand to enter my head,
flapping its cold gentle diamond wings in the soft night breeze,
it calms me down as I lay wrapped in the secure bed,
free from fear I slowly drift off to sleep,
a flash of light through my paper thin white curtain,
signals the closure of night and the opening of day.
