Poetry: Pantoum for a sleepless night

I am not an insomniac:
There's so much to think about
At night,
So much to hear in the darkness

There's so much to think about,
Recollections of the day past;
So much to hear in the darkness:
Promises of tomorrow

Recollections of the day past,
Things done and not done
Promises of tomorrow,
Things to do

Things done and not done -
Hurry, scurry, little thoughts
Things to do
So much to worry about

Hurry, scurry, little thoughts
At night
So much to worry about
I am not an insomniac
