Astral springs weaving swirls of bliss in sleep. I feel it all over. Close my eyes again to have that feeling once more. in this ephemeral state, we get inspiration, solace and deep connection with our inner selves. After a good sleep, we wake up rejuvenated. Beautiful gem of a poem, dear Empress. Belated Congratulations!

one of my fav poetry forms. Love this one. Despite their brevity, than-bauks are not easy to do. Well done

Very imaginative! We do leave our bodies, other dimensions of experience when sleeping. My experience anyway -- many convinced that I am not all here to begin with. Love it! Well done.

Hey Inkz.... You did Kim's challenge really well... sounds like a serene place when you can achieve such bliss in your life.... The use of sleep, springs and swirls are good choices for the alliteration part of this form.. Best of luck in the contest..

Dearest Inky, your words "swirl" with the energy of dreams. This poem is poetic "bliss" with amazing images. I am carried away on their joyful waves of blue. Best wishes for the contest, sweet friend. Blessings of sweet, swirling dreams dressed in astral blue! Samzy~

Dear Empress, You brought a true sense of peace in your Than-Bauk. It is a thought that I feel I could easily meditate on while in a mindful state. Thanks for bringing a little more peace into my life and something to contemplate. - Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel
