As You Lay Yourself To Sleep

Let my heart be your pillow as you lay upon my soul as you gaze upon a star Let your dreams and wishes flow Let my heart be your pillow on the wings of wind soar high Let sheer silken feathers guide you to confetti in the sky Close your eyes as slowly I rock you in the cradle of the moon Let my arms become your blanket and night's lullaby your tune Let your lashes slightly flutter to each ripple in a stream to the rattle of each cricket to my playful melody Let my heart be your pillow Come my darling,Come to me In your sleep I softly breeze in and sprinkle serenity.

I can envision the person you love just laying there in deep sleep..... When my boys were born , I would always laid them on my chest so they could go to sleep and I would love to look and smell their wonderful baby scent but I would also get much needed sleep, I miss those times. “7 " Charmaine :) love and hugs eve

"Let my heart be your pillow" What a great line and the poem itself is magical and wonderful! .....FYI, I like my pillows fluffed before I lay on them.
