Looking at my group of friends
on my instant message list
I have to smile
and note the bliss--
ya'll look like angels when you sleep.


Let me plump this pillow up.
Smile--she dropped her teddy bear.
Frowning as he grinds his teeth--
I whisper, "there's no monster there..."


Now I'll cover you back up.
Quietly I shut the door.
Dream you sweet in poet dreams--
tomorrows are your metaphor...

I know, I know, but ya'll are all so cute!

awww this is sweet!
but of course, you know you're obsessed when you have to say gnight to the computer before you can sleep.
..maybe thats why I couldn't sleep tonight!

Always, Alyssa

This was adorable, Karen. I loved this, and your ending line was just so perfect. Smiling at the visuals of this.

Best wishes,

Darn!!! I thought that I had turned off that spy-cam before I went to sleep. Next time I'll be sure to smile before I doze off!!! Such a fun poem just to imagine about friends all sleeping on line.  Good job.

I agree that friends do become a part of our nighttime ritual, not unlike those living in our homes.
This is a precious poem, serenity!

Cute is a tough word, though it fits here.  Very well done making fun of all us cyber-obsessives!
Now I MUST go to bed.  *laugh*

Cute is definitely the right word, though endearing comes in a very close second.

You should be careful, though, about that vivid imagination of yours. Mixed with a touch of white magic, you just can't predict what strange things might happen next.
