Meek sleep tapped on the door
lightly, oh so lightly
I got up off the bed
(while remaining where I was)
and let her in
lightly, oh so lightly

beautifull expressed.thanks for sharing.
I love this! Very few words but they say it all! That’s just the way I slip into sleep!
hm, nice. made me smile.
gentle. take a trip without leaving the bed. insomnia become the dream sleep dreamt.
Lovely, deliriously lovely!
You make it sound so easy. With me, sleep is often to meek to knock.
She’s an elusive one, eh? Meek sleep sounds like a tender maiden who would flee at the first sharp movement. Lightly sounds like just the right approach. Give me lusty sleep that wrestles me down and hangs on way past the dawn.
Evocative. Thanks.
So true and it feels so real, the feelings…oh how many of us become like that?
A gentle dream, sweet and beautiful.
I love the gentleness of this. Insomnia . . . second poem today I’ve read on it, and both are so different. Thank you for sharing this.
Ah, sweet image!
Amazing image.
