When waking,
The dead
Of night
Room dark
Unfamiliar hum
Sleep unnatural
A bed too soft
Pillows that
Would not suffice
A choice for
Goldilocks
Missing that
Which taken
For granted
Is home

Wide Awake Weary
The moon keeps me company
Its glow says I’m with you until
Sleep brings you comfort or
Morning comes on the horizon
And the sound of the coffee pot
Signals a fresh page in a life of
Opportunities not understood
The moon gives me hope
I’m not alone in the dark
