Sitting in the interior light, Wondering what is right, Trying for something good to write, Boredom is certainly the bane of night… Mind filled with a fire unknown, Taken from a time when hardly grown, Into the collar of a coat boredom is sewn, To always be present but never shown… If this you do understand, Then explain it to me, Nothing have I written here planned, No thought in my head is ever grand…

A busy pen is a happy pen. But I do understand boredom. It's not necessarily the enemy though. Patrick

A great way to beat night boredom is to start wandering out there in the dark. You can meet all kinds of wondrous wildlife and probably even find a new pet in need of your help.

Like my poem this week says, it's time to climb out of your head and into something grand.

"Into the collar of a coat boredom is sewn, / To always be present but never shown…"

Of course I understand this, and I imagine that you do also. Great two lines above, man.

"Nothing have I written here planned, No thought in my head is ever grandâ€¦" I think that's the way it is for most of us, Ed. Well done.
