O,to be in my little room,
where I can dream and sleep,
as up the pallet of my walls
shadow-brushes creep.

Lands and lives and lifetimes
appear and dance abve my head.
All the angels of heaven sing
and carry me to my bed.

With sleepy eye, the dreamer
watches as night becomes day...
a fiery hand throws the sun around
to chase the darkness away.

Shaking out the last bits of night,
light weilds its broom with glee,
taking every little place where
the night could play for me.

"A woman is like a tea bag, you never know how strong she is until she gets in hot water..." Eleanor Rooevelt
