A shroud of smoke hangs in the starlit sky as distant birdsong threads through the dark like silver needlework. The loon's mournful call rises then dissolves into the hush, pulling scattered thoughts into still water. Here, beneath a blanket of night, the mind settles into its own gentle breathing, releasing the day's weight with every passing note. This is meditation wrapped in feathers and shadow, where consciousness floats untethered between earth and dream.
