1 A.M.

     By Christopher Bowman

The witching hour has past
....and now is the hour of atonement.
Good girls like you are well asleep
in peaceful slumber untroubled
by woe and worry.
Where the vagabond and gypsy king
join the poets endless wanderings
for unrequited loves fulfill
and sojourn seek
dawns new hope
and quest to long
for fulfillment yet adorn...
