My room last night was fresh and cool,
With winds whistling thru' the shutters.
Sounds so eerie ~ yet comforting,
As I snuggled under the covers.

With pillows tucked around me,
I felt cuddled and warm and cozy.
All was safe in my downy world,
And I glowed all pink and rosy.

I slipped off to slumber land,
As if floating down a stream.
No cares or worries filled my head
~ Just a night of pleasant dreams.

I like this.

It somehow reminded me of a Linda Ronstatt track.

E.A. - this makes me think of the night I spent on a ranch in Texas with the windows open and the shears stirring, the feel of the blanket - ooooooh - it was bliss - yummie-

Hugs - Susan

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

I'm so glad your headache seems to have let up
and you got a good night's sleep.

I wish I could have a nights sleep like this but my horses stall in next to my hay pile and he keeps slobbering on me all night.  Enjoyed the cool breeze of this one.

I wish mine had been that way last night,
I think I woke up about three times before
the alarm crashed down on my ears!  Good
words, good feel...nighty nite....

Mr. T. ~

It is good to know that I am able to gift you with some "beauty" ~ as I have been gifted by you!

May all your nights be as "Last Night" was!

Sweet Dreams, Sigh Man!

Well at least it isn't a tiger that keeps you up all night! I hear they can bite! lol

Sending you a potion to help you to peacefully sleep the whole night through!

Bottoms up!

I trust that I understood what you meant by "good feel"! lol I am an "angel" you know!

Sleep the sleep of a babe this night!

Warm hugs and a warm glass of milk with vanilla and honey in it!
