After Karaoke

music lingers
streetlights
shine stars
man and woman
sleeping in shadows
the library’s closed
an intimate voice
on the radio
as I drive home
midnight
the spell is cast
midnight
as I drive home
on the radio
an intimate voice
the library’s closed
sleeping in shadows
man and woman
shine stars
streetlights
music lingers

Hey that's cool how you've written this in reverse and it still makes sense. It gives the poem the feeling of continuation... as of this isn't a one night deal but something done many times. I love karaoke!! <3

Mike, a pleasure to read. You have a way to present what you see with elegant simplicity. Has to be fun to sing and go.
