brush my teeth and go to bed
pick up all the marker tops
scrounge for scraps and wash my hands
color test with colored pencil
final drafts with fine point -black
a splash of color, a light erase
my eyes are tired
my droopy face
the bells they jingle
the sky is clear
and snow is covered over here
cold and late i think it best
to turn in now would be a test
of stregnth
the night awaits
