The eerie silence is so purest
At this hour in the middle of the night
As I stand alone in my balcony
With a cup of hot flavored tea
Stretching beyond is the lovely forest
Enchanting me and so dearest
Lucky I am and blessed for sure
To live in peace with Mother Nature
In the dark somewhere I hear the sound
Of rustling leaves and grunts aloud
A litter of noisy wild boars
Charging through the shrubs, so close
Behind that tree in the dark I see
Pairs of eyes that shine with glee
A herd of spotted deer I guess
Do you think I would ever miss?
Far beyond and all of a sudden
I hear tree branches being broken
Must be a naughty wild elephant
Scaring the long and wicked serpent
That was a peacock’s haunting call
Far away near the waterfall
So gifted I am when I watch him dance
To welcome the rain with charm and grace
Night after night it’s so wondrous
Nature to me has been very generous
As I stand alone in my balcony
With a cup of hot flavored tea

I do prefer to think of it as that distinctive peacock's call, rather than "a scream." ;-)
Well scribed; welcome to AD!
