Fall towards night 


Heavy eyes,

dragging down towards sleep,

Iron fillings towards the magnet

Memories of elementary school  science,

chasing  brown  pieces of metal,

Dancing against their will

Limbs heavy, 

Morpheus descending,

Playing a song of serenity,

Clouds drifting across my consciousness,

Drawing back  the night,

Twilight pulls its curtain back, 

pins it with a star, 

memories of my grandmother 

Though she has travelled far

In dreams anything is true

The impossible is real,

One last horizon before dawn,

Fade to slumber

 peace descends
