tired blanket
falling across my soul
like snow
from a leadened sky,
fixed on a candle
my eyes heavy
with twilight
cannot resist
this gentle lullaby.
malady of a winter eve
you bring peace
in spite of my
resistance - my wish
toward warmth & long light,
i find myself
content
in the barren landscape
& early night.

sleep is synonymous with cold winter weather for me... so warm.. so cozy....
What a beautiful poem.
A lovely flow of lines with a gentle rhythm. Beautiful.
Makes me want to sleep.
(Oh, in a good way)
read like a dream
I really like new image for your header and the pink somehow makes me happy.
You are a featured poet this week at PWB.
Your poem made me long for a nap with my dog next to me. So sweet is a nice sleep.
