Safe by Tom Sharp

Hobbling with a cane back home in the dark I was sure that a tiger passed behind me. The cottages along the path were dark. Everyone else was quiet or missing. The Big Dipper was falling into the river and a monkey cried loudly ahead. When I got home, I lit two candles. Who even noticed me dancing and singing?

夜归 by 杜甫 (Du Fu)

夜来归来冲虎过，山黑家中已眠卧。 傍见北斗向江低，仰看明星当空大。 庭前把烛嗔两炬，峡口惊猿闻一个。 白头老罢舞复歌，杖藜不睡谁能那。
