A Restless Night (by Joe DiMino)
Often I have looked at stars--
and thought each the twinkle
in a distant eye--
or a candle flickering
in yonder deep,
where a throng of Mimis
search without sleep....
Where is that confounded key?--
the one that fits my book of prayer--
the one I take to heaven and share
all I relinquish
and all that I bear--
