Night Owl

grabs a hat from the hatstand fraught, he warps the midday sun no apricating mellow touch in haste, too early a venture while camouflaged conspirators beckon to no end, lest he dawdles through waxing moonlit gossamer and warms the trees of dusk

loved this...when I was younger I was a night owl, warming the trees of dusk so often. Perhaps that's why your poem resonated with me. Have a splendid holiday, Sara

Well I just want to run off with that first line - it's magical! If only that were a contest prompt - I'd love it :)

Once you have grabbed your hat the world is your oyster, I may have have inspired myself by your inspiration of my words, I think! Thanks D
