Can't Sleep.
When dark holds the night
and stars close their eyes,
the black clouds fly swift
with the moon in disguise.
Then chill thoughts invade
to crawl through the brain,
all sleep evade
and senses play games.
Imagined, the visions
in corners they stand.
A thump on your bed
cold grip of a hand.
A creak on the stairs
or footsteps instead,
to creep through the door
and catch unawares!
Spooky

Try reading one of my dreary posts...Choose the longish ones
.. Guaranteed to knock anyone off to sleep ... Plus they're effective in keeping away unwanted guests.. Whenever anyone extends his/her friendly banter after tea & snacks are over I bring my tattered poetry note book.. After reading one or two they say "Excuse me.. but I've got work to do" This is no exaggeration.. Absolute truth
