Loveless-Painless

Lights came on; dreams started to roam.
Floating along beside an unknown gnome.
Miserable heartaches shed.
Hurtful imaginings fled,
She woke up while her body stayed home.

Such is the nature of nightmares, Dane Ann. I'm glad the "unknown gnome" was able to bring her peace. Great poem, dear friend! Love, Carolyn
