Midnight Writer



When the clock
Strikes twelve
And everybody
Has retired to bed
She will get up
Get a paper and pen
And start to scribble
Beautiful lines that
Will last forever.


Comes the break of dawn
She will take the machine she owns
And start to tap its keyboard
To give life to the beautiful lines
She has formed
So that others can read her masterpiece
And followers she can't afford to miss. 


That’s the life of a midnight writer
Come hell or high waters
She will breathe life to
Her thoughts one way or the other
For that will really give her
Fulfillment as a writer
Even when a stalker
Is eyeing at her.


P.S. This post of mine has been published at The Writer's Lounge, but because I want to make a complete archive of all the poems I've written, here I am posting it now here.

  3. Beautiful poem.Writers are creatures of mood and even strange places,odd times and queer incidents may trigger their creative process to bring out sublime pieces of prose or poems.
    I am glad Amity that you are posting all your old poems in the blog.I look forward to a feast of verses from you.
    Cheers

    I was a midnight writer, two months ago, and i wrote that poem, two months ago.

    I stopped being a midnight writer a month ago because I got sicked due to sleepless nights. Now I write lesser and lesser coz am no midnight writer anymoh!

    Sad, isn't it? You've got no companion to write in those unholy hours of the night coz granny retires to bed at 8 in the night?

    Thanks, am no midnight writer anymoh! Time changes as preferences for time of writing changes!

    FV is more fun, and am a midnight fahmeh now! Waaa... ha ha ha ha ha...:)

    Peace!!!
