Restless Night
Early in the morning
On the fourth day of the week
All in the house fast asleep
Even the counting sheep
Doves not cooing
Birds not singing
Moon not shining
I am pining
For the words lost
When the computer went down
Then restarted
From the ground
Wished words were saved
I thought they expressed
All the pent-up restlessness
From the night that I hadn't slept
