That Cry in the Night

                                 That cry in the night

                                 can be a train whistle,

                                 an owl,

                                 or curlew

                                 flying inland in the evening –

                                 the meaning is always the same;

                                 a door swings open

                                 and lets the cold wind in.

Found poem                  
from prose (page 17)                  
The Waiting Game                  
a perfect novel by                  
Kate Christie (1962)
