Dark of night

as I sit within my room

     to creaks and pops of walls I listen

as the cooling of the night

     changes bring in darkness with out

 

silence rings within my ears

     perhaps hiding things that should not be

and dark fears within me stir

     wondering of what I cannot see

 

who can know what is with out

     lurking perhaps without the light

O Lord

It was a long and arduous walk; I walked and walked   
the sun followed along on top, and it was smoldering hot, 
All I wanted was the cool shady tree and a Coco-Cola.
