I lay down to slumber
Soon fast asleep
I drift off in dreams
Of an ancient forest
Nestled among rolling hills
The sunlit glades beckon
In the near distance
The sound of running water
Gurgling and bubbling
Of a small stream
Following its winding path
Through the old growth forest
Stepping stones allow passage
Through the shallow waters
Pools form at the stream bends
White lilies nod gracefully
In the quiet pools
The forest floor abounds
In splashes of color
Of the blooming wildflowers
A swallow tail butterfly
Alights on a flower
Moving on to another
The gentle beauty of lush ferns
Among the stately maples
Add a royal touch
Song birds flirt and dash
Among the changing shadows
The stirring of the leaves
By the gentle breeze
Brings a refreshing feeling
As the dream ends
Having awaken from slumber
I love sleeping and this poem!
