Cold is the night air, The shadows deep, <br /> <br />Dawn is far from sight. <br /> <br />Ghost's of sleep tempt my watch, <br /> <br />On this cold and wintry night. <br /> <br />Hear I not the sound of foe, <br /> <br />Stealthily creeping nigh. <br /> <br />If only the light of day would show, <br /> <br />My time of watch gone by.<br /><br />Bernard Shaw<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sentry/
