At Night

At Night when all are fast asleep,

I like to creep about bare-feet

And enjoy the precious time of me,

No longer caged, but walking free.

Creeping past run-down shops,

With windows firmly closed,

Watching all the humans,

Watch them as they doze. 

Then crawling up old brick walls,

Until upon the roof I sit,

Enjoying my free time,

And forever cherishing it.

At Night when all are fast asleep,

Around barefooted I do creep,

Clutching hold of liquid time,

Until it's no longer mine.
