Before midnight set in everywhere, it gradually started shutting down, and everyone began looking for a place to rest their heads. Gradually, the voices in the street reduced, the voices in the compound also reduced, and it is obvious that midnight is here.
It's midnight already, the crickets, the frogs have resumed duty because they own midnight sound.
Right beside my window, I hear the crickets sing. I also hear the frogs sing. These creatures do not make those sounds during the daytime; you only hear them at night, so they own the midnight sound. In the midst of this sound, I personally have time to meditate because there is no one shouting or children crying here and there, but everywhere is quiet. Midnight sounds like the best time to make sound decisions, to read books and understand, midnight is the best time to meditate and think about life if sleep will permit you.
The best of it all is that midnight is the best time to pray and supplicate to God, at that point there is a feeling that he is the only one listening to you since everyone has gone to bed and there is no sound coming from anywhere except that of those crickets and frogs who are also praising God. To me, midnight is more than just sleeping and waking up because I have come to realise that a lot can happen at midnight.
Is there anyone who falls sick at midnight? People around are always scared because it is not always easy to move around at midnight. Midnight is not empty but filled with sounds that are deep and alive for both visible and invisible creatures. Some of the midnight sounds include my neighbours who are snoring, which I cannot explain where they will be snoring.
The midnight is always peaceful and calm. Sometimes I wish the day were like midnight, when we have a calm and noiseless environment. Looking out there you see the stars and the moons they are all there to beautify the midnight, even when a car passes in the midnight, people always wonder where the person is going at that time of the night
Just inside the house, you will hear the sound of the fan blowing and the freezer on; those are the sound that takes over at midnight, as if the whole world has left me behind, because everywhere is quiet.
I love midnight, it's sounds great to me.
