Rest thine head upon pillows dream,
An' release thine anguish of thy day,
I shalt sit here ever beside thee,
'Til waves of slumber has taken away,
Take comfort in safety of thine arms,
For no demons' shalt come unto play,
Nor shalt misery's' company be warranted,
Shalt close thy door unto voices say,
Capture the butterfly before thee,
Slide upon thine rainbows edge,
Swim within pools of captured waters,
dive from thine milky ways ledge,
Rest thine head upon pillows dream,
hold vast the knowing that i am near,
Drift off in waves of peaceful slumber,
I shalt cast off all that thou fear......

I believe this is one of your best! Outstanding the way it flows, beautiful piece!
Geoff, your finest hour is here.I find this piece to be of mastered quality, in all basic literary principles.Your trademark 'old world' style of scribe, has indeed paraxysmized into a strong-suit niche for your writing.Versing cascades, sweetly & smoothly & the language & tone are serenely powerful.... This one goes into my very small vault oF 'favourites'.Superior cratsmanship, Geoff. FRANK/FJR

A medieval slant to this one, a Shakespearian dream of a poem. Very well put together and a pleasure to read. Soft and gentle and loving. A sweet write. Love and hugs Ernestine XXX
