I Reach Out For You When You Call My Name

I lie in bed dreaming sweet dreams
Smooth sheets caress my body
Curled up with the one I love
You gently call my name 
Whispering sweet nothings in my ear
Singing me the sweetest song
I turn over and I reach out for you
Don’t you just hate it when the radio alarm clock goes off?

:D I wasn't expecting the last line. Thought perhaps you slept with a teddy bear as I do. Those alarms are quite irritating. Excellent poem, dear. Love, Carolyn
