Five Liner. Sleep Poem by Valsa George

Five Liner. Sleep

Rating: 5.0


As the glowworms in the stygian night
Throw flickers of light like scattered gems
When little birdies cuddle under their mother’s warmth
I sense the indulgent grip of Sleep
Who takes me to his gilded chamber of dreams!

You have brought elements of sweet sleep, From glowworms and stygian night's leap. Cuddle of mother to her little birdies, Warmth of mother that mutes worries. Indulgent grip of Sleep brings a dream, ..........10 'Sleep' is your poem full of cream. I have no words to offer you thank, May God bless you for poesy bank.

Tell me of what ethereal wine you are drunk That so much poesy brims in your head Like glowing glowworms without a cease Casting imagery day and night (10)

Oh.... Love this piece of 'class' poetry! Thank you! When words of encouragement drip as honey And make me ride on a pony I soar into the mysterious realms of fantasy And verses, though empty, come to me bubbly!
