Trial by Insomnia
By: Fee
Softly dusting clouds with wishes
Spreading dreams across the night
Old secrets told on summer breezes
Linger unfulfilled 'til morning light
Sleepless night, just one of many
Haunted images of days gone by
Verbless stories, left uncompleted
Punctuated with each painful sigh
Twisted sheets and rumpled pillows
Testimony to the listening jury’s ears
Testified of love once stolen from a heart
Verdicts in, sentence rendered…forever tears.

While my sleep is interrupted by physical concerns and hot and cold issues, I always wake up dreaming a new story that doesn't really have anything to do with my past but provides a great future for writing strange stories that come in the night.
Sweet dreams will come for you, I hope.
Ron
but a sleepless night such as you describe is
a trial to be endured…
You have used your pain to such good effect to
create this dream of a poem…
Regards,
Diana…🍃
