~"When the world is dark and others sleep" I find thoughts of you in my counting of sheep Across the fence of night they leap until the alarm of clock does beep~ ~Then upon the rise of morn thoughts of you are newly born Never shall the sheep be shorn to wrap the night in ever warm~ ~For in the gentle night of fleece I shall always find the peace in count of you among the flock that ticks the tock of my sleepy clock~ **Giving inspired credit, where inspired credit is due** /pip/Forum96/HTML/001272.html#4 Thank you, John~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

A lovely insired write Marge! Love the tick tock rhythm felt here. Indeed, it is when we are least likely to be able to sleep that bits and pieces of rhyme come to us. Love you, Nance Autumn, the year's last loveliest smile~ |

Hi, Marge. That's really cute. I like it! John xo I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realized, than lord among those without dreams and desires. -Khalil Gibran |

Marge, your spirit is a great inspiration to everyone who meets you or reads your work. You are a staple here and PiP's wouldn't be the same without sweet Marge. Ed Once you are truly insane, it’s all picnics with Kafka after that. See, it’s the process of going crazy that you gotta worry about. |

'Across the fence of night they leap" I love this verse. vivid but when one counts sheep, rarely think if they are jumping over something...also means the sleep jumped away too. beautiful. beautiful. |
