Middle Of The Night Poem Poem by Connie Webb

Middle of the night
All is so quiet
Thoughts run through my mind
Of days behind me.
Thoughts run through my mind
Of days to come.
All in all
I have lived a good life;
Not that I didn't have problems
Or heartaches;
Not that tragedies didn't happen
To me
And to some loved ones;
But all in all
I have had a good life.
To be able to look back
And see there was laughter
There was happiness
There were good friends
And I had good times with family
Makes me happy.
My life now is good, too
And even though it is the middle of the night
And I am not sleeping like most people are
I still am content and at peace
And that is a lot to be grateful for.
I am not sure about the future
Who is?
So I will just enjoy the now
The stillness
In the middle of the night.
