Sweet Dreams

 By: Sheena

Drifting shadows on my wall

And softly ticking clock

Try to rest as stars fall

Warmed by silken frock

Dreams weave beyond my grasp

All too soon I’m there

And with another, our hands clasp

A man so shy and fair

Whispered affections breathed

With loved embraces shared

So little time with make believe

As we cling with begging prayer

All goes dim and starts to fade

We whisper sad goodbyes

Eyes open up to curtained shade

And I whisper soft ‘Good night’s
