One more line


It’s that time of the night
when crickets fall into
a deafening cacophony,
racing wheels slow down
and cease to burn the roads,
my home goes quiet
but for the whirring ceiling fans
when I know I should be counting sheep
and putting myself to sleep
and my muse keeps me awake and eager
to put together one more...
just one more line of poetry.

    One more line,
    it encapsulates it all..
    Brilliance of your soul
    stirring, mooring
    anchoring

    All the best, looking forward to reading the entire collection.
