poem that speaks my soul

DRIVING THROUGH NEIGHBORHOODS
by Gretchen Fletcher

I live in your living room
for the short seconds it takes
to pass your window.
I sit in the glow from your lamp
and read a book from your shelves.
I water the fern that hangs in your window,
and feed the cat that sits on your sill.
Then, listening for someone
calling from the next room,
I finger your lace curtains
and adjust your blinds,
before moving on to live
in the next lighted living room
down the block.

(found browsing a wonderful site called openartspace.org)

yay. that IS good news. I can't imagine not sleeping- I often joke that B and I are 'professional sleepers'. 1-2-3-SLEEP!!
I can pretty much fall asleep any time of day if I let myself. And then I'm exhausted from all the dreaming! Wakeful energy is what I struggle to have more of.
But oh may you sleep peacefully through your nights and wake refreshed!
