Sleep Sweetly

Sleep Sweetly

As you roll over
Create a space
Where warmth enfolds
The weariness of day
Pull the coverings gently
Surrounding fleeting mysteries
Of all that transpired today
Let it be enough
To listen quiet in heartbeat
Here in silent wonder
Connection to feel all
Invisible it dwells
In the outreaches of mind
As you fall into slumber
Let this kiss fill your dreams
Allowing attention at rest
To shelter tender sighs
Of inner~contentment

Thank you very much for the sweet dream! The imagery is very soothing and has an almost lullaby quality to it.

What a sweet and tender bedtime sentiment for the child in all of us. Very nice!

If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
