Dawn

a big full moon
a coyote yowl
in the tree
a hooting owl
a warm night
and I can't sleep
counting sheep
does not help me
so I lay here
wide awake
knowing soon
the dawn will break

very well expressed, I've been there (apart from the coyote - we don't have those here). Enjoyed the read, especially the last 4 lines
