Dr. Upma A. Sharma Poet Free verse

Night Owl

Night owl


Wake up all the night,
Asleep whole day bright,
Am I a night owl ?

Ward of seriously sick,
Moving my neck at three-sixty is a trick,
Am I a night owl ?

Disease in fluffy plumage,
Prey to hooked talons' curettage,
I am a night owl !

Aboard in the black hours,
Be dark sky or glitter of stars,
I am a night owl .

Inheriting the mystery and magic of night,
Taking a noiseless flight,
Blessed are the night owls !

Andrea Dietrich August 6, 2014 at 6:44 PM Hey, I Really LIKE YOUR POEM. I also did a night owl poem a long time ago and entered that one because I am a night owl. WE ROCK, we night owls do.

Reg Rhodes August 6, 2014 at 7:39 AM Great poem! I can definately relate this to my own 'night owl' tendencies.

Gwendolen Song August 5, 2014 at 8:35 PM You wrote a beautiful free verse on the the mystery of being a night owl. There are two types of people in the world. One is the early bird. The other is the night owl. U know u are a night owl when the mail comes at 2pm and it is right on time with your first cup of coffee for the day! :) Nice work!
