I write what I feel…

Sleepy

Sleepy

.

Head back, I dozed, eyes closed,

Sun and shade played

On translucent eyelids

Barely visible

Felt, rather than seen

Thru the screen of lashes

Resting on my cheek.

Dust motes dance

Up and down a shaft of light

Then, as it fades,

They too vanish from sight.

I am a middle-aged South African woman, living in Johannesburg. I began writing poetry towards the end of May 2010. I love animals – sometimes more than people! I am back after a break. Thanks for still being here, if you are! Missed you! xxx
