I Must Go Down: CarolAnn, June 10, 2009, Jaffrey, NH

(After John Masefield, only shorter.]

I must go off
To sleep tonight
To dreams in which
I sigh.
And all I ask
Is a comforter and
A teddy bear nearby.

I must go off
To dream this night
To snuggle midst
The fleece;
To hug my love
And count the stars
And drift on seas of green.

I must go off
To cruise the thoughts
Of heart and
Mind and light;
And all I ask
Is a dream of love
And a new dawn
Breaking
bright.
