NOCTURNE:


Heavy eyelids, battered, bruised & purple pleated,

Waltzing down cold corridors, towards wolves howling,

Dancing in her midnight gown, of soft velvet moonlight,

Mantled in her lacy shawl, of sparking diamonded stars,

Somnolence her soft nature, insomnia her sleepy name,

With owl upon her shoulder & cool dew beneath her feet,

She tiptoes into ticking seconds, into minutes & long hours,

Treading softly upon the hem, of the whispering satin dawn.
