it’s your words that undo me
in the evenings
when my eyes are sleepy
and begging me to close
they turn up by surprise
one
two
three
daring me to read
short and to the point
expressive
sometimes proper
sometimes not
yet knowing I will
savor them at length
and sleep the sleep
of a princess in waiting

so a new day can begin...


Be kind at heart....for everyone you meet has their own battle to fight.........

A lovely princess indeed
May her days of waiting be colored with the beauty that shines from inside

Lovely write, dear friend.

Dear Roniece lovely Princess, your moments before sleep are sweet and certainly bring
equally sweet dreams. I wonder if there are still Princes who can live up to a girl's dreams ... but what fun to create him! They say our thoughts are bound to realize and this is good news!

love and hugs
Margherita

RDB,

This is one of the few good "shape" poems I've read.  The shape is appropriate to the words.

Good work Princess.
