Ceiling, wall, pillow
Toss and turn in search of sleep
What did I forget
*
Ribbons of moonlight
How rarely do we see them
Creep across the room
*
Slumbering faces
Wife and son in silhouette
How can I complain
* * *
From time to time I suffer from insomnia, but after so many years, I've begun to see more of the wonders of night, rather than complain about how tired I am in the mornings. These haiku are a representation of that shift in my thinking.
