Sleepwalker Poem by Naseer Ahmed Nasir

Sleepwalker

Rating: 5.0


There should be someone
To move into our sleep
And give the dreams a meaning
And say,
Come, we altogether go
Through the night forest
To look for the moon
It walks alone in its sleep
Let it not fall in the swamp
The child is so displeased
We have to bring it
Back home.
