Imagine Yourself

imagine yourself

in the center

of a flower

lounging

on pillows

of soft petals

perfumed by

scent

of sweet nectar

as you drift

gently

into sleep

under

the fading light

of stars

a nightingale's

song-

your lullaby

I hope you're still reading and this poem hasn't mesmerized you into sleep! After a long day at work, it's nice to visualize something positive, take a deep breath, and relax into the night. At first, I imagined myself in a garden, but then I thought, what about in the center of a flower? Now that would be something, wouldn't it? This is posted for The Imaginary Garden, where MZ invites us to write a poem "in the safest place you've ever known."
