stretches...
like a flower
petals upturned
ghostlike vapors
drift away
Bullfrogs croak
My dog slumbers

evening slumbers -
muted by the falling snow,
dusted in quietude,
trees slip peacefully into
the night, blanketed by snow

Lavender sunset
clever clouds slowly saunter
across fading blue
Nightlights aroused from slumbers
winter notates return date

As my body slumbers my spirit soars
touching battle fields and foreign wars
my dreams relax the whole of me
astral travel is truly free

summer slumbers deep
as winter breathes icy tales
sugar-frosted dreams

she has the whole world in her hands
her psyche knows
feeds her soul while she slumbers
preparing her heart
for whatever tomorrow throws her way

Nestled justly,
the thief he slumbers
sprawled spreadeagled
upon my bed.
By witching hour
his deafening snore
drives one to ...
Lumbering lethargy.

She softly sings, soothingly
to the serious and somber Samuel
who safely and sleepily slumbers
to her sweet shushing serenade.

He sleeps like a koala from seven to eleven.
While I'm here simply left waiting and wondering just when
Is the specific time that I can even speak to him again.

A monster slumbers ,
Deep within me .
With one eye open ,
It tries to break free .
Without my loves ,
Tender kiss .
I'd be a broken man ,
An lost in the abyss .

soul slumbers
spirit guides' secret signs
soft sweet snoring
savoring sensuality
sensing rebirth, revitalization, renewed strength
spirit guides gently surround me, showing their love

Creeps the dawn past brooding thunder pillows
Village slumbers
Sleepy dreams
Safely
Home
Wakes
Slowly
Sleepy yawns
Greet clouds high shield
Welcome respite from suns arid display

shy pink faerie slumbers
baby badgers lying on her dress
guarded by spotted fawn and twin bunnies
puffy lavender mushroom cluster stands guard
gorgeous turquoise sky full of diamonds smiles

Pour, into my cup, come in the slumbers of dawn
Cast away the ash and sackcloth, granted life
The pheonix landed to visit awhile
Tomorrow the bird takes flight

thought pendulum sways
pulse of duality flows
hypnotising us
by its charm
awareness
now stuporous
slumbers in the bardo
celebrating its uniqueness

The average bird considers it best
to sleep at night inside a nest.
When a squirrel wants to catch some z's,
he uses cavities in trees.
A bat, of course, must play the clown
and slumbers upside down.

as
we rise
from ashes
step thru decay
a purple sunrise
promises a new day
relatively calm moments
conceal the storm that’s a brewing
a mighty beast shaken from slumbers
with chaotic vision; blistering hope

Death knows best
Ooze of jest
Good gathers ground
Rich ripples round
Soul slumbers sound
Sad sorrow sweeps
Dense drowsy deep
Silence speeds sleep

Shepherd boy seeks out a green knoll
Close by a clear watering hole
Sheep lazily graze after noon
Eyes heavy, the boy slumbers soon
Whoa, What? -- He wakes up with a start
Sheep's skin, by a wolf torn apart

in hell now

Blank verse
Olden knowledge should smolder
As smoke rising from an ember -
Universal but not common -
Peculiar but not forgotten.
Tell me of those days of yore -
Of circumstances transpired -
So I can repeat on my lips
That which slumbers in silence.

Awake ©
white clouds of dogwood
geese trumpet beside the pond
bird song heralds morn
hollow makes a nest
dainty dwelling slumbers on
in the wooded gloom
screen door creaks open
smoke swirls from the chimney mouth
cabin stirs awake ~
