Night Life Listen The night becomes a symphony unto itself As the light shifts into quadrilateral illuminations My skin quivers in an octave frequency just waking Sounds that make pictograms on my mind Alive and uncharted Exploring by some inner knowing, the attentive rite Spring, in its evening call, resuscitates the darkness Familiar voices clear the throat of ebony Listen Taken into REM, the basis for a long night’s dream Copyright Kkh 4/9/09 |

Lovely metaphors and the mood is great. Love that rapid eye movement just before you wake and sometimes you wish you could have stayed in the dream. Eric |

I am such a night person, this one is almost written for me. Thanks. It's great to be able to read your works again. |
