The Quiet Dignity of the Night Shift Worker

While others dream, they stack the shelves,
And keep the secrets to themselves.
They clean the floors, they guard the gate,
And wrestle with a lonely fate.

They watch the sun begin to rise,
With tired and accomplished eyes.
The hidden gears that make things right,
The silent dignity of night.
