Nocturne

Moon in the sky, Bright luna glow; A nocturne high, Fond dazzle shows. Late night swings dark, Watch shadows creep; A sleepy spark, Plunge of deep sleep. Snores tell of rest, Primal night knows; Sense dreamy quests, In drowsy flow. In my bed now, I wait for sleep; I don't know how, Snooze can fall deep. I take a peek, See slant of lights; Sheer darkness seeks, Contort strange sights. From this dark room, The moonlight far; Deep night lulls gloom, Devoid of stars. A nocturne here, Greets simple wish; To rise with cheer, As joy fills dish. Leon Enriquez 09 May 2017 Singapore
