Restful Sleep

I slip under grammas old patterned quilt my breathing slows.........comfort at last !! a down feather pillow to rest my head as I roll and toss , I find the perfect little spot a dream awaits , I smile , remembering all the events of this day....... a past is fleeting......... all my hopes hang on tomorrow.... peaceful dreams , I drift away... loving bliss......warmth a silent solitude , reminisce............ a cocoon of healing my sanctuary of solitude......... dalliance............ I fall deep.................................

The thought of snuggling under that quilt is so serene, Rick. Quite a nice "sanctuary of solitude" as you drift off to sleep. Love, Carolyn
