End Of Night Shift Poem by Paul Warren

The stars are fading just right
And the darkness is lost to sunlight
You turn the police car into the station
And return your gear with no elation

Then you leave to go home
Another shift has become known
What thoughts to you mull around
As the daylight awakens the town

Will you toss and turn
With no sleep that you have earned
And you will turn up again
As night shift seems not to end.
