Sweet

Sleep

By Colleen WaltersPublished about a year ago Updated about a year ago 1 min read

You look so peaceful

sleeping there.

Lost in slumber’s quiet

embrace, your busy mind

at rest.

Are you dreaming,

anticipating simple

pleasures yet to come?

Or ready to slay a giant,

armed with nothing

but a small

pebble, worn smooth

by faith…

It’s quite beautiful, really

because you look

so peaceful

Sleeping there.

    I just love the concept of sleeping outside under the moon while camping with the tent window open.
