EYES IN THE NIGHT

                                EYES IN THE NIGHT


   What is it that lives beyond the light of day,


   Lurks, wanders in the dark, exists in the night.


  Search for food, a task that's taken much for 
  Granted,

  While we slumber in silence, eyes in the night survive.


  Many are they that fly, quietly on the prowl this night,


  Over fences, there are the ones that move carefully, 
  Slowly.

  Crawling along the ground, there's a fight to see the 
  Morning light,

  Scraps of food, nourishment for a chance to do it all 
  Over again.

  So many eyes in the night, traveling along, the hunter or 
  The hunted,

  Big over the small, stronger defeats the weak, faster may 
  Just escape.

  Eyes in the night, for many, could be a scary sight, on  
  This Dark night,
                             Keith Garrett
