The weight presses on my eyelids
Urging me to sleep.
Just a few more minutes
I'm almost finished.
The grandfather clock cried out in the hallway.
Just a few more minutes.
I know it's late, but I'd like to finish before I sleep.
The silent sound of snow cumulating on the world outside,
While I diligently work.
I open the curtain.
The sunset rising over my yard blanketed in cold crystals provides an astonishing light
To review my completed project.
It isn't perfect
But I am content.
