Silent Night
A Christmas Poem written for a contest

Silent Night

It was the night before
Christmas morning
I lay, restless
In silk pyjamas
Listening to all
That was
Unfamiliar.

Tentatively,
I removed the
Earplugs, hoping
That the incessant
Growling of dogs
In the yard,
And the scratch
Of cat’s paws on the door
Had ceased.

But alas.
I turned to look
At him
And wondered
If a kick in the midriff
Would stop
The snoring.
How I longed
For a
Silent Night.
