A Vacation in Alaska

30 poems in 30 days challenge! Day 30

Its midnight,
Time to close those eyes,
But the light, oh the light!
The sun still shines!

I've lived a week
It feels like two,
The sun never sets
In this wackeradoo!

Four hours of sleep,
Three are twilight
The one remaining
Is my soul's delight!

The solstice is near
I'm not ready, I fear
I may be exhausted
From this day all year!

A vacation in Alaska?
A preposterous idea!
I'd rather be cruising
My way to Jamaica!
