“THREE IN THE MORNING” By Bill Charles ~~~~ It’s three in the morning, what am I doing here reading all these poems, from this sitting chair… Replying to this one and that one over there, heck there’s writings, most everywhere… But it’s time to stop writing words for this poem, and get back to reading, those which are awesome… ~~~~ |

I can't sleep either---smiling...still looking for that perfect lullabye that feels like a warm poetic hug...waiting for the pillow to WELCOME me for once!  Thank you...it's a little less lonely now. |

Bill, I love it when you can't sleep you write so soft and low it's like a cradle gently rocking. Close your eyes, lean back and relax soon reality will mingle with dreams, soft and low like a cradle rocking and before you know it morning will come with the sun clad in gladness. Keth. Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

At 3 in the morning, my mind was at ease finally, peacefully, no one to please... words never fail me, understanding leaves much, but your words always find their softness in touch. *s M "For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. |

Bill darling boy this is utterly utterly excellent, and I bet you're tired out now, aren't you? So soft and dreamy is this, absolutely wonderful writing Go to sleep my poet friend rest your weary eyes While you sit tiredly you’re missing sleeps surprise Your bed calls out to you come lay down in me And I’ll waft you to slumber to wander dreamily Come walk in vales of dreams witness marvels sight Submit to sleeps invitation to drift in dreamers night Don’t shun sleep’s delight or stay away too long Give into dream’s desire and succumb to lullaby's song Just in case you can't sleep later smile   Love and warm stuff As always Mushy  To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |

Ok..the next time so many of us are up at 3 a.m., let's meet in an MSN chatroom (I created one last week). Just let me know and we'll chat until everyone gets sleepy (NOT that any of us is boring!!).. enjoyed the poem.  |

Gee...I'm going to start staying up all night...feel like I'm missing out on all the fun. I think my muse is the only one who sleeps during the night. Nice gentle write Bill. Hugs, Nancy. ~* A dream is a wish your heart makes... *~ |
