NIGHT SOUNDS…..2
Darkness is at the door, and I, cat comforted with sleeping purring snores…….
Lie listening,
to wind moaning at the corners of my little home,
and old wooden walls that shift and creak and groan…….
a dreaming dog’s muffled whine,
clock ticking, passing time……
my breathing slows to sleeping.
Night flows on, unwatched, uncaring
…………………just being.
