I GIVE YOU..... MR. NIGHT!

I GIVE YOU..... MR. NIGHT!

A Poem by andrew mitchell

Ladies and Gentlemen. I give you. "Mr Night"                (applause)
Hello there
I'm everywhere
And now I'm here
I see you.
I'm Mr. Night.
I travel far
Around the world
I know your friends
I visit you
I'm Mr. Night.
From behind the clouds
I have a goal
And that's my role
To make you sleep
I'm Mr. Night.
I'm everywhere
With many names
Dead, still, Moon-lit night.
Oh! What a sight!
Can I give you a fright?
Who's around you
Who's behind you
When you get home?
Oh! .....Its late.
Don't break a plate!
The only fault
I think I have,
So don't be late
Is that, I can't..... discriminate
THAT'S YOUR FATE!
Who can hide you
And protect you
I have no face
With all my might
Its me... Sir Dark Knight.
Who can turn a world,
Upside down ,and make you frown
Not even a sound;
I've lost my crown!
It's me!   Mr. Night.
I'm all around
I reverberate
Fireworks please!
Lets celebrate!
I'm Mr. Night.
Don't be late
Don't hesitate
There's the gate
Hurry home
Or what awaits!
Now I'm here
It's time to go
I bid you farewell
"Hello Sun! I'm always black."
But I'll be back"
From Mr. Night.
Meanwhile , 
Hear me snore
With all my might
It's just a night!
Till then...... its goodnight!

Why the heck was Frank Sinatra crooning this one to me - I gotta be a goofball altogether.
The premise of this is so inventive Andrew. Your mind is a machine gun of unique. I swear - it makes the jaw hit the floor - especially given how prolific you are too. I doff my face to you sir !

Very cool indeed.

Well I happen to love the night. Don't scare me at all :) Specially in the summer after a long hot day. Night sky, stars, crickets, a glass of wine and some mosquito repellent lol. I have always been a night person. true!

Thank you lynn I like the night too!
Very creative verse idea my friend. Not only you crafted an excellent piece, but you could go on from here with many other thoughts that play to this theme. Well Done.

Thank you Willard for your kind words
I love this done as 'ladies and gentleman' ...presenting sort of thing. I read it aloud as I do yours at the idea of another poet I think I have said before, and this just roles off the tongue. very witty and clever as always Andrew!!

Lol

And i am laughing ..... with my coffee lol

I love what you have done here ..... I can see Mr. Night .... Riding away
Wearing his mask
Scaring people into sleep and fright

He is the mystery of all time ..... Somehow i see Mr. Night as a person

Raiding the city and creating terror
Only the sunlight exposes his tricks and puts his attempts to bed

Mr. Night gets put away somehow

Loved this poem .... You never fail to impress Monsieur Andrew :)

A very interesting poem. Given the fact that it was written aout something as mundane as night, it is extremely unique. I like the style and composition very much. Great job! :)

Hi Andrew. What can I say?? Those creative juices are flowing right now and flowing with pure gold. I was thoroughly entertained!! I keep having that image of the table, the beer, beneath the black sky and the man's head erupting with soooo many ideas. I love this. You do light-hearted so very well, alf
