Night time dreaming

Night time dreaming

Enfold me in the velvety softness

Of your deep indigo silence

Fading away those harsh sounds of

Daytime living

In a world so flung so far away

From your mystery

Draw close to me in the quiet time

When night time

Appears

And then reveals to me

That soft tender comfort that comes

From enclosing

And folding in upon myself

Spiraling down with sleep

To that place within

Where deeper truths and dreams abide

Covered over with the mind

NIght time dreaming

I open my soul to receive you

As my eyelids close

Curtains

Falling across consciousness

Which so often seems doomed

To perpetuate so much separation and pain

Surrendered to this dreaming

And in the leaving

Of this surface where we live

Not always fully alive

But so often only as

Frightened sleepwalkers
