I also picked the line with the Light in the corner: What a magnificent idea, one I will use as if it were a standard fixture. Lovely. But, indeed, I love that the entire poem is the very melody that the first stanza promised: <br /><br />"Wrap your body in a blanket of your daily successes<br />And listen to the cricket with a musicians ear<br />For it is love that he is singing, life that he is crooning<br />Every line a melody, custom tailored to sooth your brief madness"<br /><br />I love the blanket--another item we all need to use more often, and the idea of the sleep/dream as a brief madness and the idea of stirring it into the coffee--I do not even need the vanilla!:<br /><br />"Just know that you can carry these thoughts forward and blazing<br />And stir them into your morning coffee….with a touch of vanilla"Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05723639294340760325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-827113736357895263.post-42983566029709062772012-07-23T12:48:18.371-07:002012-07-23T12:48:18.371-07:00In a world gone insane it is nice to know there is...In a world gone insane it is nice to know there is a light to give safe passage through dreams.
