Sleep’s Courage

Do you exist
In your sleep
Or do you blend
Into your dreams
Perhaps you meet
Those you are afraid to reach
And you speak words
Held just beneath your tongue
What of your thoughts
That you would never dare
And that is the allure
Of sleep’s courage

***

recognise the unparalleled importance
of a good night’s sleep

Dear Sonya,

Thank you for this very nice poem having to do with sleep. A good night’s sleep is valuable in so many ways, and perhaps even some rather unusual (albeit natural) ones.

I don’t know that I exist in sleep. I often wake up sensing that I have just returned from adventurous journeys, the memory of which, though, is just out of reach.

All good wishes,

robert
