THE BLANKET THIEF

by gary-brocks

Last night into the room she crept, awhilst I lay in bed and slept. My dreams there caught on sleep’s broad reef she breached sleep’s net, the blanket thief. Copyright © 2004 Gary Brocks

My wife woke me by wrapping herself in our blanket.

I couldn't sleep, so I decided to try to capture a bit of William Blake's voice.
