Sweet Sighs, Stretches and Gentle Night-Peeps
In the wee hours of the morning I watched you sleeping;
relaxed, contented, softly dreaming.
I wondered what thoughts your beautiful head was keeping.
.
I saw you stretch, reach and search for my arm.
You wondered if I was there to keep you safe and warm.
Fear not, my love, I’ll keep you safe from harm.
.
I feel our days softly waning, soon you’ll sleep with me no more.
I’ll miss your sweet, soft cuddles – and yes, even your snore.
These words I’ll read in my diary one day and they will read like lore.
.
But right now, Sweetheart, we’ll cuddle and sleep.
I’ll enjoy your sweet sighs, stretches and gentle night-peeps,
forever grateful you’ve shown me love this deep.
