High School:  Honorable Mention

 

Nighttime

 

It was 9:00 on the dot, when the murkiness arched its back,

             and snuck up cautiously on the residents of cat town.

 

          There were strange bright glowing street lights, resembling large

cat eyes that started to appear.

 

People were snuggling in their beds,

and purring like kittens.

 

It was as if the entire town,

had curled up in a ball,

settling in for the night.
