Wrapped up in slumber

I love to watch you sleep awhile
As a mother watches her child
Peace and calm across your face
The steady rhythm of your breathing
As your mind drifts onwards
From all the troubles of the day
What dreams are you dreaming?
Where is your peaceful haven?
The place you go to get away
As your body rests from its toils
I so wish that I could be
Resting in your arms right now
Safely wrapped up in slumber
As we both dream our dreams


This poem came to me through a dream itself, a field of summer flowers, a picnic blanket and two happy people.  I must of been thinking about some happy event from my past.  Now the memory will continue through the poem.   Happy days.
