Last night I slept in the arms of Conscience,
rocked by a gentle lullaby, while Reason whispered harmony
that brought sweet solace to the soul.
Echoes of those sweet refrains
will calm the turbulence of dawn.

This poem had a more surreal feel than I anticipated, but to go with it there is a lso some good personification of non-real things such as the conscience and reason, which notably are give there respect. The poem flows extremely well and has a dreamlike soft quality that is calming in and of it self, great work, good luck and thanks for sharing.

That "" Reason whispered harmony"",is the keystone of this soothing lullaby of exquisite sculptured verse. Oh but that I could find that reason myself every night!

Nice that it seems as though your conscience is such that it lets you rest. Not so with many
After line 2 should there be a period rather than a comma? I notice that the next line begins with upper case ... I'm not really that good with my punctuation.
Maybe there's a reason ... -
Wonderful. Is it true you are publishing? I would be interested in knowing how to get a copy, if and when.
Write On!
