Ah Sleep




Ah Sleep

Day ends as it begins
with sleep
ah sleep
that mini death
half sense
half scene

So welcome to the weary
she opens her arms
invites you in
her scent
like fresh air
burnt in sunshine
like the iron left on

Morning brings
more of the same
in between
delicious sensations
in and out
she gently rouses
