My short and sweet bed time story for you!

Blog Posted:11/15/2012 10:45:00 AM
Hello, my dear poet friends! It's still November and as we all know, it's the month of "All Souls". So, I want to share with you a short story.

       Last night, I had a nightmare. It was not a scary one but it really made me feel so bad to the point that I cried and struggled to wake up. I was so thankful that my dad ( who passed away almost two years now) woke me up. Unbelievable but he carried me lovingly on his arms like when I was still his little girl, his little darling sunshine. He asked me if I felt cold. When I refused to answer and just shook my head, he held me tightly and shook me until I awoke. Albeit the things my dad did were still part of that dream, I was so thankful that he came to my rescue; otherwise, I had the difficulty of waking up. When I woke up, I thank him in profuse tears of joy.
 
      This dream had given me an idea of running my next contest with a theme, "Waking up from a nightmare." If you have a nightmare or unpleasant experience, then you can write a poem about it. You also share what had happened after waking up and what/who woke you up. Please go and read carefully the rules of this contest. Thank you very much and enjoy!


Love always, Leonora

Thank you so much Andrea. My dad was a very loving and caring person. For me he's one of the best dads in the world.
