Night Drive

Night Drive

Shadows of street lamps and traffic lights

Hypnotically bounce to and from

Play tricks as I drive through the night

While I indulge in jazz melodies to move my journey along.

I love driving along like this

So I can naturally express myself in a song.

The carless road is mine as I flow

Although daybreak will transform all of this

To a frustratingly and heavy traffic that's slow

So the night and the journey are mine for the moment

As my destination comes into sight

I give thanks for a twilight night.

(8th poem for NaPoWriMo)
