The Lamplighter's Round at Midnight

Midnight. A ladder clinks against the first lamppost. And you are invited to follow.

Walk the lamplighter's round through a sleeping town: the first flame blooming on the ladder, pools of gold with soft dark between them, shuttered windows and breathing houses, the bakery's warm window, a cat who joins the walk, the bridge of lamps over the river of lights, the last lamp at the lane's end — and then home to blow out your own candle and be carried into sleep under the lamplighter's blessing. Slow, warm, and made for the small hours.

Recorded for sleep at a calm, even volume, with each stop on the round marked. The script was drafted with AI assistance and read through for flow before recording.
