Good Night Poets

Mr Sandman is calling my name
Blew slumber powder on my brain
What lies ahead for me in sleep
Hoping for peace and happy dreams

Good night poets one and all
Hope you dream big and tall
Or if your time to be awake is now
Hope your hearts desire is found

Lovely poem Karen. I tend to wake from my dreams with ideas for poems and have to write them down before I forget them. :). Cheers - Gary

Nice lullaby. Not all are ever so gracious to we night-owls. Once, it was my hearts desire to be bereft of all desire but who can argue with heavenly Streets of Gold! A heart-spring that quenches the thirst for recognition - the familiar - "Family". It's just a matter of remembering Our True Name. We are the Earth and the Moon sings: "Good night".

With the introduction of other religions in America today ( like Buddhism, Animism, etc), confluence and confusion can become the "dis-order of the day". ~ I enjoy being "cute" which is "a•musement" from the Greek "a•muse" which means "Not Thinking", but it's also synonymous with "Fun" or the Christian concept of "Joy". ~ "Let no man steal your Fun"!

Dear Karen, This is A very well-inked slumber poem. I love to dream and remember some of those dreams especially in the morning hours. Your words open up the many memories of those slumbers. - Autumn Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

Wow sorry to hear that. Do you sleep with the tv on or music playing? Maybe soft music will help and tv may hinder.
