Sweet, sweet pillow Soft and Downy fresh How I long, to hug you During the hours of wake Even when sleep never comes Still you cradle my head, warm Poor, poor pillow, I wear you out Still you await me, day after day The long hours, that I leave you Seems you'd just run away But there you are, all fluffy Ready for my dreams, my nightmares Whatever happens, you are there Holding my tears, keeping them safe Even when I'm angry and pound you You amazingly, regain your shape When no one is there, to hug me You are there for me to hug. Your silence, keeps me devoted I will not share you, unless He accepts the fact, that you and I Are friends, till the end, My Pillow. |

A pillow for my wiery head Awaits as friend upon my bed To hold me in its warmth and keep To comfort me through time and sleep Dear Regina, you told me all about your pillow, making me relise how we all take them for granted. We get inspiration from many things that are part of our lives. Stay well rested, enjoyed the pillow talk. Rick |

Ah, good. I did a poem of pillows, and am glad to know that I am not alone in thinking that it is indeed something that we take for granted, not realizing how important they are to our nights! |

Nice to see such a wonderfully crafted piece expressing what I consider to be the strength at the end of my day when I can't reach out and touch the one that elevates my dreams. Beautifully penned and of course, I don't take any pillow for granted. |
