At Nightime

Listening to New Age music and relaxing late at night Mellow sounds remind me that the time has come to put away thoughts on paper Realizing that once you are published You've blown your cover After inscribing this ode I will focus on the pretty sounds issuing forth from my TV Let my mental state become one of peace and soon I will go to that temporary death called sleep

A good one to stumble on in the middle of the night. Could be doing with a little temporary death myself. Love it.

Such a mellow steam of consciousness that I think all writers can relate to. Enjoyed this write very much.

Like this one..It takes a lot of that temporary death called sleep for me..Enjoyed reading your work..Thanks for stopping by my page..I can pick and peck a little on the piano and keyboard..I never had the chance to take lessons but I can read music a little and enjoy singing but I don't know if others enjoy hearing me sing..Thanks for the visit to my page..Sara
