Notes About The Poem

While You Sleep

While You Sleep

The morning is still gray, 
it is just before the dawn. 
I stare out the kitchen window, 
looking for a lost song. 

I make the coffee, 
and clean up... last night. 
It was a good time,
to remember, 
how to laugh. 

Now you are quiet, 
and so am I. 
Peaceful is the day, 
in every way. 
I pray. 




A. Foster, Ann Foster, Annette Foster
