Anticipating

 


I'll probably sleep well tonight,

long day's work spreading itself oddly
into my dreams,
working with tools, solving problems,
being caught aloft in a gust of wind

There may again be waking moments
when the waning gibbous moon
peers piercingly
through our little window,
or the cold and hot of things
requires adjustment

But there is a rich blanket of peace
that billows like a magic carpet  -
it will carry me through those moments
right on till the early dawn.
