Heavy eyelids seeking shade
Curled up in a peaceful glade
And seek the sound of comfort calls
And seek of solace, dreamtime falls

Drifting off the night sky sounds
Silent prayers in heartbeat pounds
And seek the covers billowed high
And seek of close contented sigh

Hearing quiet in the wind
Worries soothed to faint recind
And seek the pleasant lullabye
And sleep surround of soft shut eye

(smiles) Oh Kathleen, I always love the peaceful and serene feel of your imagery in poetry, sweet friend, this indeed swept me off my feet and drifted me into daydreams of delight, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kathleen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

I think I'll keep this one on my nightstand, Kathleen...
I always wake up in the middle of the night and can't fall asleep again...
So, I'll read this poem and it will help me to drift off peacefully.
Thanks for sharing this lullaby with us.

This was lovely...really liked the way you did the last two lines in each stanza starting with and...so very peaceful, the feeling.
