sleep soundly -
woken gently by birds
singing dawn chorus.
*******************
all day
walking along the river -
good night's sleep.
For photos, haiku and a description of the walk mentioned in haiku 2, please read this post.
sleep for One Deep Breath
Your blog has gone green! Two very good sleeping poems. The second one reminds me of my grandsons at day's end.
ReplyDeleteHI Sandy - well i thought it was time the look matched the content!
ReplyDelete"Singing dawn chorus" was a very lovely line and what a terrific way to sleep deep.
ReplyDeleteThese were just lovely.
ReplyDeleteI really feel the second one. Fresh air and the great outdoors always inspire good sleep.
ReplyDeleteI like the new look, Juliet! Yes, some fresh air alway makes for a better night's rest- very nice!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe it has been so long that I missed the change in your blog design. I like it. The photos of the walk are beautiful. I would sleep easily after that.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your comments! Jone and Regina - glad you like the new blog design. I think I'll stick with this one now, just change to a different shade of green every so often.
ReplyDeleteJone - glad yo liked the photos - it was a lvely walk.
Regina, Jem - yes lots of fresh air definitely equal a good nights sleep!
I especially love your second poem. It makes me think of my children and myself. A hard day's "work" -- whatever it is -- makes for good sleep.
ReplyDeletei love to be 'woken gently by birds / singing dawn chorus' - lovely haiku! your walk along the (brilliantly named!) River Almond sounded fantastic too.
ReplyDeleteI love these! They say so much, so simply. I have been covering my head with my pillow due to the loud bird song in the morning...maybe I should get up and meditate instead ;-)
ReplyDeleteJuliet,
ReplyDeleteRefreshing outdoor exercise along a scenic byway to bring pleasant exhaustion to the bed and awakening to the natural music of the birds. It really doesn't get more perfect. ;-)
rel
How I need sleep right now!
ReplyDeleteI like the green efffect of your blog.
Good idea to get that walk in. Like the new look of the blog.
ReplyDeleteI especially liked being woken gently by birds singing at dawn. I'm usually up around dawn and look forward to such a chorus.
ReplyDeleteI prefer essay writing help for writing an explanatory essay, but tour haiku is so exciting! Mane thanks.
