It’s 3AM and I’m still awake

I walk to the window and pull back the drape

And stare at a moonless starlit sky

And wonder aloud, why is it I

Cannot find the sleep I so desperately crave

These thoughts overtake me, to a point where I cave

And slink back to my desk like a cat on the prowl

After all, it is why I am called the Night Owl

Casting shadows, you illuminate night

Take away the darkness, shining bright

In the sky above, to the Earth below

Ethereal beams transcend, and glow

Giving me comfort, my fears you allay

Celestial body, in the dark, I can stay

Another Verse, Another Day

owl-947741_960_720
Headphones on, to dim the noise

Fingers on the keyboard, poised

Words begin to type themselves

Thinking, maybe, I have elves

No, it’s me, who taps away

Another verse, another day

Things are starting to make sense

Thoughts and meanings so intense

Can’t believe my brain’s still going

Now this poem’s overflowing

Enter, comma, too much drama

All this writing’s causing trauma

Blurring letters fall off the page

I’m starting now, to disengage

Eyes begin to droop and close

Maybe I should switch to prose

Embraced by the Night Owl

I am Sheltered in his Wisdom

In the Grace of Moon Glow
