At night

Its sounds

Invade my space

Lulling me to rest

Guiding me

To that place of quiet

Reminding me

My day is done

Drawing me

To tomorrows’ dawn

And there again

When I awake

It greets me

With its constant rhyme

Never still

But oh so slow

It moves consistent

And with each stroke

Although unseen

It grows me old

My time to close
