A Nightguard's Life

Autumn leaves that crinkle underfoot
The misty sky at night.
The gale force winds,
The thunderstorms.
Such is a nightguard's life.

Winter snow three feet deep,
Working on Xmas night.
The icy paths
The double thick coats.
Such is a nightguard's life.

Spring birds singing a mating call,
Owls that hoot at night.
Flowers blooming,
Gardens of colour.
Such is a nightguard's life.

Summer evenings bright and clear,
Patrols in short sleeves at night.
A cheese salad meal,
Unofficial cold beer!
Such is a nightguard's life.
