can not compete
with a blanket's warmth;
cuddled deep in the womb
of a cold winter's bed.
she only dances face to face
inspiring with ageless eyes
and memories of lives
long dead
not with the merging
of two souls,
mother/child,
no matter the age.
gentle sighs mirror
the flow of life
shhhh, shhhh, shhhh
and I drift again
without her
Please tell me what you think

Oh, sleepy pontification. So many of my best thoughts have been lost to wonderous sleep.

Oh My~
I'm glad I came along for the ride~
Very Creative piece You have woven here John
Love the reference to 'ageless eyes'
that speaks volumes~ and for some reason I'm reminded of Oil of Olay- the commercial
Along with the cameo image-
the underlining message
Thank You for sharing Your Voice and Spirit~
Many blessings to You in all You do Sweet Soul
Best wishes too
with much love & light~ Desire~*~

What...?
...you're not on the bus? LOL
They do allow blankets on public transportation, you know!
I have two bedrooms and a pair of nice recliners in the living room. For the past three years I have been migrating from one room to the other, sometimes sampling all in one night.
But now I've retired from the work sector and my somnambulist days are at a close. I now catch my ZZZZ
in one bedroom only, though I often get up in the middle of the night to gaze upon my old stomping grounds before returning to bed.
What do you do if you try to get under that comforter and find that your muse has already beaten you to it?
Never mind! That's another story!
Nice to hear from you John. Looks like your at the top of your game, if this poem is any indication!
Keep on!

Elusive
Ms.Muse is a teaser / it is only when I ignore her, that she gives up her gems of insight.
I am never able to recall or relate the true essence of her touch...hmmm____ in older days "to be touched" was to be considered 'insane...hmmm / lol
