Tiptoes into slumber
Dances into dreams
Knits visions in the night
Sews sleep between the seams
Prances along the river bank
Of the ocean of tears
Filled with joy and memories
Full of frightened fears
Sits beside the emotions
Watches them wade away
Bobbing up and down
In a restless, swirling way
Follows them with caution
In the translucent, tired stream
Tiptoes into slumber
Dances to a dream
