Sweet Dreams, World

The hour draws late
    horse is in the barn
  Children tucked in bed
    cat's put away her yarn

  Moon looms up in the sky
    high over mountains and hills
  Planes ease onto runways
    Elders remove dentures, take pills

  Quiet settles into hill and vale
    No sighting of deer's white tail
