rain beating a tin drum
above my head
where I lay
sleep hovering near
warmth seeping through me
the duvet settling across my form
eyelids fluttering in a mild effort
to stave off the night
as I nestle into my pillow
dreams, but a hairbreadth away
drifting into sweet repose
and wistful dreams of you

heather... the most important thing is getting enough sleep... LOL... seriously.. i mean it!!! and it's hard to do... especially under the circumstances... i'm glad you have your duvet.. and i had to look up the word because my vocabulary isn't that good... hehe

i enjoyed this one, my poet friend... thank you for a very mellow and comforting read.
