Sounds Of The Night Poem by Audrey Heller

When there are times you can't
sleep and toss and turn in your
bed. You find yourself listening,
to the sounds of the night instead.
All are familiar, as you've heard
them before. The fact of the matter
being, this time, it bothers you more!
The crickets perform their symphony.
Not exactly, the kind of music, you'd
like to hear. Not to mention the frogs,
theirs, is worse I fear! Certainly, I can
do without all this commotion. I need
to have my sleep, in order to function
right. So all I ask, give me a break and
let me have peace and quiet tonight!
