A Writer's Poem

In the quiet of the evening,

When the world is still

I take out my pencil and notebook

And fit it onto my lapdesk

And write

In the silence of the night,

When the world is peaceful

I open up my bedroom window

And ignore my sleepy eyes

And write

I leave the world behind

And create worlds of my own

When complete, to share with everyone I know

With the hope of becoming

A professional author someday

In the quiet of the evening,

When the world is still

I take out my pencil and notebook

And fit it onto my lapdesk

And write

And write
