last night after midnight when all the day keepers turned into night time sleepers I sat and pondered life in yonder pond did that noisey frog croak last night? it was way too quiet did that lonely loon find a new mate? he was way too quiet and into the night of mist I missed the sounds I usually hear and wondered if perhaps it was just a weakened ear that somehow failed to tune in to the wonders of the night time bands the night time bugs that roam the lands when the day time keepers become night time sleepers and if this makes sense to you you just might be a night time lover, too |

Kacy i love the night...but you have described your thoughts well....the silence of night and the depth of universal stars has always impressed me..thank you for this midnight rambler poem.. Goldenrose. ''As the deer pants for steams of water, so my soul pants for you O God'' Psalm 42:1 |

Your innate sense of what should be will never dull... perhaps all were sleeping... and you, the noctural keeper of the flames... stood watch...  |

Kacy "and if this makes sense to you you just might be a night time lover, too" Oh yes...I am...my window open always...I know the wondering when a sound is missing. |

"... into the night of mist I missed the sounds..." I love it! Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |
