~ Night Creeps
Night creeps around my feet;
The cares of day abate.
The chores that have been left undone
For another day can wait.
The burdens of a hurried day
Slip gently from my mind.
Sleep reaches out and welcomes me
Across the gulf of time.
Thoughtful little poem. In the end the final sleep lifts all our burdens left undone.
The title is a little misleading ;) I though I was going to be a 'Spooooky' poem, but instead I found it to be lovely and serene like a lullaby. I love your use of rhyme and the rhythm was soothing. Very nice.
