30 Poems for National Poetry Month: Day 20
April 20, 2013
Nightmares end.
Last night’s surreal
Scenes stopped abruptly
Segued into pages
From “The Song of Songs,”
And my love sleeping
In my arms again.
Morning comes with the hush
Of a spring rain, a chill breeze,
And robins and starlings
Vying for attention.
I pull my love closer.
Her head on my chest,
Her dreams in my heart.
–Scott Edward Anderson
