Rest Awhile

Consciousness 
I slip into the unknown 
With clutches to my covers
A breath so slow and mild
The book that did read  
Here are the words I have compiled 
That’s left me to intrigue 
As I sleep a bit in wonder
May the deepest part of me fall under? 
I’m taken to place 
With mystery, and in space  
The only time I rest 
A part of this aching quest 
Is in suspended consciousness

A joy to read an oldie by one of my favorite poets Laura. Love, Carol
