What do you look for as you go walking after midnight? <br /> <br /> <br />I Go Walking After Midnight <br />by Barbara Lynn Terry <br /> <br /> <br />I got up because I couldn't sleep <br />and I could have sat and weeped <br />but instead I got out my clothes <br />and chose my black hose <br />to go with my black dress. <br /> <br />I took my coat that was light <br />and went walking after midnight. <br />I enjoyed all the colors I could see <br />by the rays of the moonlight <br />and I smiled at the sight. <br /> <br />There were oranges, yellows and reds <br />that was much better than my bed. <br />The air was very cool but not so <br />unbearable or really that cold <br />as my wanderer's lust was fed. <br /> <br />I walked through the park <br />even though it was after dark <br />and had saw the most marvelous sights <br />as I was walking after midnight. <br /> <br />© 2009 by Barbara Lynn Terry<br /><br />Barbara Lynn Terry<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-go-walking-after-midnight/
