Oh Sandman - edited

Each night as into sleep I go,
Oh, may my true love’s face I see.
Oh, Sandman, please do not be slow.
Each night as into sleep I go,
dust my eyes with a magic glow.
In sweet dreams may I with him be.
Each night as into sleep I go,
Oh, may my true love’s face I see.

Each night as into sleep I go,
Oh, Sandman, please do not be slow.
Dust my eyes with a magic glow.
In sweet dreams may I with him be.
Oh, may my true love’s face I see
and slumber steal my grief from me.

Loved the lines "In sweet dreams may I with him be and slumber steal my grief from me". This is how any true love would feel like isn't it? Fantastic entry for the contest. Hugs. ~ Ani

Panagiota Romios October 20, 2024 at 12:48 PM Awesome Andrea, you know I lime the velvety feel about this one!! Its just magnificent to apprecite one, lime you who masters form! And can combine a storyline with it. Your soupmail to me is what I needed. I am cutting out anyone who dares to be negative with me me. They can hunt down someone to insult. Next step, blocking. As my Mom said to “meanies “ you can be replaced.” LoL In admiration, Pangie
