Now I Lay Me. . .

finally laid to rest
the spectre restlessly tossed
upon the sunken rockbed
unable to sleep
All he wanted in life was to be remembered
now he is forgotten

slumber does not come easy
when ghosts invade dreams

The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind pretend I am weightless and in this moment I am happy

This is so true, Jeff...
They visit me every night, but I wish I could remember what they told me...

(big hugggssssss) Oh Jeff, I too know this feeling so so much, it too disappoints me because I ruly believe the ghosts have something important to tell me and I wish I knew what it was for I believe in spirits and believe also they could help us if we could be able to listen! (sigh) This is wonderfully heartfelt, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jeff, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

This was very, very good.
Ghost in dreams?? Yep ! So true that I've named all of mine. ;-)
BTW: Would like to mention that I read every word you write, though I don't always have the time to reply.
I like what you do, 'cause you do it so well !
