Last Night – (a double elevenie)
Quilt
Blue squares
Pieced and stitched
Tucked under my chin
Sleep
Pillow
Feathery soft
Beneath my head
Tired eyes drift closed

NaPoWriMo Day Seventeen – a nocturne
~
Dream Dancing
I sit alone sleep
will not come
day has long ago
dissolved into night
and the memory of you
is slowly fading
like the light
I grasp for scraps
of memory that glow
like embers in my mind
and fan them gently until
they warm my heart
my eyes begin to close and
we are once again dancing
In my dreams
tribulation
tin stars pasted to a dark sky
paper moon is an illusion
a crystal dove that can not fly
a dream filled with dire confusion
a mind trap of grim delusion
please come to me to save my soul
with murmured words of allusion
to light and free flight – make me whole

Day Dreams
the sun woke slowly
rubbing her eyes
yawning, smiling
remembering the dreams
she dreamed through
the dark night
dancing with orion under
the milky way and
partying with seven sisters
on the red planet
dreams of love songs
played by lyra that
she holds in her heart
as she journeys
across the sky
