Because the night 🦉

Because the night 🦉

Because the nighttime searches for silence

Yet that silence sounds so gloom

Insomniacs toss and turn. wide eyed with weariness in a lonely room

Staring at the ceiling, listening to that shush of silence, still wide awake

Because the night is when we need our rest, but there is no sleep for heavens sake

Then amidst those lonely hours that hush is broken, an eerie call

Another solitary soul is sitting sleepless, perched upon your garden wall

But that ooly Owl is nocturnal, she is hunting for her prey

Then as morning follows dusky darkness, she will rest in silence for the day

So one shares that bleak of blackness, beady eye balls both are bright

Because the night succumbs to serenity, betwixt yon shadowiness of the night…
