Better tonight. Still glad the work week is over, but not exhausted. Night poem to share.

Night

Night envelops dreamers,
in hospital bed, in barracks,
on camp cot, on park benchs,
cozy under handmade quilt,
dozing in glider with nursing babe,
snuggled in lovers arms, alone,
rocked close, beloved, forgotten.
Night envelops dreamers.

Night enveloping dreamers--such a lovely and comforting image!

I'm glad to hear that you are feeling better, Victoria. Your poem gave me pause thinking of all the dreamers each night. Another happening that makes us all one. I say a prayer for those in harms way or disheartened but so many lovely visions too, such is life.

I like this very much, Victoria...so many different people dreaming, all connected by night.
