Gazing upwards... <br />Admiring the beauty, <br />The canvas of darkness...the the celestial wonders. <br />The stars, strewn throughout the night sky. <br />Shining so brightly, <br />Like so many souls radiating their joy throughout the Heavens. <br /> <br />Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep... <br /> <br />As i close my eyes... <br />A gentle calm encompasses me. <br />Thoughts begin to focus, <br />My heart begins to fill, <br />My spirit prepares for flight, <br />Soon...soon my love...we will be united... <br /> <br />Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep... <br /> <br />And in an instant...the shackles release... <br />The fetters of this earthly existence.. loosed, <br />We are free...we are free... <br />The pain of this realm no more, <br />We will be united... <br /> <br />Now I Lay Me down To Sleep... <br /> <br />Soaring ever higher... <br />Burning off the remnants of this terrestrial plain, <br />The transformation begins, <br />The infusion... <br />Peace...Happiness...Joy, <br />Not long now, we have almost arrived. <br /> <br />Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep... <br /> <br />And then i see you... <br />I feel you...like never before, i feel you, <br />Your Beauty...your Love... <br />All that is you... <br />I grasp your outstretched hand...tonight we are together, <br />Our journey for Happiness a success... <br /> <br />Now I lay Me Down To Sleep....I pray the Lord <B>Our</B> souls to keep... <br />I pray that we always be allowed our dreams...where we can be together... <br />Forever...<br /><br />Michael K...<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/now-i-lay-me-down-to-sleep-8/
