The hum of the fan
sings a lullaby
as the stress of the day
falls out of the muscles
An angels cloud of a pillow
my head sinks in
covers pulled up high
warm in my womb
The sheep ramble bye
one bye one
and slowly transform
into nothing
The sandmans dust
has been sprinkled
and rapid eye movement begun
falling into the land of dreams
Landing softly
in a newly mown green field
with knee deep patches
of bluebonnets and Indian paint brushes
A creek trickles nearby
its lulling sound
a salve for any remaining pain
brim swim in its cool waters
In the distance
snow capped mountains
haloed by the sun
that hides behind it
Cottontail rabbits
on the move
pay me no mind
on their journey
The purple martins
sing their song
interrupted
by the mockingbird
A whitetail doe
and her two spotted fawns
ease by, head down,
munching on grass
Calmed, and relaxed
breathing easy and rhythmic
eyes dart around
taking in the beauty of the dream
