My Gift

a poem by thenorm

 

I awoke this morning

And received a gift

A beautiful gift

A wondrous delight

The sweetest feeling

I've ever known.

I looked

As I awoke

My eyes heavy with sleep.

I must be dreaming

I thought.

I have to be.

So I reached across

and touched my dream

My muse

My love

and discovered

She was real.
