A Haiku Before Bed, November 27, 2019

stars above 

the night’s calmness

fir smoke in the air 

I do love the night. But now, it’s time for sleep to get its way. 

Good night, my friends!

​Going to sleep Friday

Tomorrow’s free morning

Ah, to wake leisurely!

My mind springs awake

Hours before dawn

This sadistic life

While dawn approaches

Waiting for this fitful night
