The
moonlight
woos,
and the
breeze whispers
softly
through
lucent
window panes,
while the naive
slumberer
dreams of
love,
her cheek
so gently
carressed
by
silken
sheets.

Author notes
This poem came simply because God has given me a most comfortable bed, so much so that there have been many times I've fallen asleep on top of it, not intending to do so!
This happened just last night. When I woke up, I realized I still had my shoes on!
I then got ready for bed, and got under the sheets... and I felt like a piece of melting white chocolate- it was just SOOOOO nice!
Suffice it to say I went out quickly after that.
There's a verse in the Bible that says, "He giveth his beloved sleep"- I take that to heart.

Samplette had a contest eons ago for this form- I think it's fairly new?
It's a poem with ascending and descending syllables: 1-2-1-2-3-2-1-2-3-4-3-2-1-2-3-2-1-2-1. They are also supposed to be centered on the page, and usually have a relaxing/peaceful theme to them.
I just woke up in the middle of the night, and felt like writing it before I went back to sleep! I did have to rework it a little bit, though.
Glad you liked it...
I have another one somewhere, entitled "Epicranium Pleasure." -
Dear Nat, This is exquisite. The imagery so sweet, soft, and inviting. Is there a form called waltz wave? Wow, pretty.
