Lying in bed
The window open wide
Rays of gold from the lamps
Dance frenetically inside
The flow of a nearby river
Hums sweetly in my ear
As I stare at the ceiling
Filled with moonlight care
My eyelids drum against each other
Joining with the whispers of the wind
The stars blink with love for me
As the night begins to sing
Turning the canvas of darkness
To a heavenly scene
Whisking me away
To the land of dreams

You are an amazing poet Phoenix!!!! You must try your luck at publishing it as a whole. I am sure that you have a large collection of it. Or have you published any already?

I love every line.. Your powerful use of imagery got me doing what you were saying in this poem. For example when I got to this line..
…..As I stare at the ceiling
Filled with moonlight care
My eyelids drum against each other
I practically blinked my eyes severally which is in line with your description (eyelids Drum against each other)
Also this line
…..The flow of a nearby river
Hums sweetly in my ear
Creates a vivid imagery and I can’t help but imagine flowing river with the sound it makes when the water flow.
Thanks for sharing this amazing work!
