May I return when nights come

May I return when nights come 
And off the furious outside mind
And lit beams inside of some kinds 
 
They sparkle calmness as seeds  sprout 
And shine as the moonlit torches the soul 
I am sure of these moments of aliveness 
As bright as the crystallized world of unseen

ln a sudden mode, hilarious could

Bedtime - a tricube

No worries, 
no snoring, 
only sleep;

A night shift, 
none have I
just shut eye;

We can play 
tomorrow,
rest for now.

Night life

My life, my night, is like a twilight. Stars in the sky, what a sight.
Laughter from all around, enjoying such a lovely night. 
The sweetness of the candy and caramel apples as I bite.
I'm on a rollercoaster so high with screams in the air.
I enjoy the fun games of excitement as I walk around everywhere.
Smiles

Good Night Sweet Kitty

Good night, sweet kitty.
It is time for us to sleep.
The moon is out, the day is done,
It's time for us to dream.
What is that crash, oh furry one?
You say you see a bug?
I've looked and looked, nothing is there,
Are you sure it wasn't a dream?
I'm startled awake by an apparition,
a screech, a snarl, a scream

But know that the LORD has
set apart for Himself him
who is godly;
The LORD will hear when I call
to Him.

Be angry, and do not sin.
Mediate within your heart on
your bed, and be still. Selah
Offer the the sacrifices
of righteousness,
And put your trust in the
LORD.

There are many who say,
"Who will show us any good?"
LORD lift up the light

Premium MemberSay Goodnight

Don't forget to say goodnight 
'Cause when you do my world seems right 
For though the bed bugs may not bite 
Without it I just won't sleep tight

A nice long trip to dreamland waits
And your goodnight unlocks the gates
Of all the dreams it generates
Big snowstorms are my favorites

Ruby and the dice

Ballad for Ruby and the Dice"

Angie, she whispered through cigarette haze,
The ghost of a name from my wilder days.
Under my thumb, I thought hearts would stay,
But wild winds never learn how to obey.

Paint it black, I told the sky that night,
When Ruby Tuesday danced out of sight.
She wore her sorrow like lipstick red,
And left my

The Other Side of the Pillow

In the dark of night, where dreams bear bloom,
and silence reigns in my shadowed room,
my pillow waits, serene, composed,
awaiting my sleepy head to doze.

Beneath my head it yields its form,
to cradle my crown from day’s storm,
and offer a sweet night’s repose,
yet pillow’s thoughts, who really knows?

She seems so sweet, pretends to care,
yet every night disturbs

Good Night and Good Luck

“Good Night and Good Luck,”
Brought to us from the stage,
Allowed viewers from home
To with theater engage.

Based on Edward R. Murrow
Who, for CBS News,
Got to challenge McCarthy,
It got rave reviews.

Though George Clooney was brilliant,
As was the whole cast,
What most got me was watching
A glimpse of the past…

When the bad guy was finally
Brought to his knees
After hurting

Night

A man once asked me,
in the middle of a drifting conversation,
“How long do you sleep in a day—
if you ever sleep at all?”

I looked at him,
searching for a polite reply
but found none that fit the weight of his question.

So I simply said,
“I do sleep—
just like any normal soul.”

But deep inside,
I wondered—
what does normal sleep even

Great night to sleep tight
Onyx sky looking at stars
Owls hoot a piercing cry
Did he just call sweetheart 

Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray that I wake up
Good night poet or good morning 
Hope you get plenty love
