    Now I lay me...







    now i lay me down to dream
    finding your arms and touch
    sleep is that far off time
    when rest will be from toils and grime
    in the pure activity of dream
    I will hold you gentle
    and love you without reserve
    finding that brighter place
    (with just us two)
    leaving aside our daily dust and tasks
    for the more valued closeness
    shared without limit
    till time passes away from us
    (at last)
    and all illusions of seperateness pass

    "til time and illusion of separateness pass..." --much more than a transport of feeling--more like yogic knowing. Wonderful!

    Ilove the message, anticipation for wholeness throughout everlasting life. Soul mates, completeness, and leaving behind the trivalities of life. Pretty good....

    I like this one too. It speaks of how gentleness & love that is unconditional clears the pathway toward the union of the soul. You have a natural gift with words.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
