Aaah... I remember those days of peaceful sleep, my cheek beside my lover's heartbeat. Now, like you, it's boring old sheep that accompany us to bed where we restlessly toss and turn all by our lonesome selves.

My favourite cat used to snuggle in my bosom at night and I could hear his heartbeat.. it was such a cosy feeling.
Now I too am just left with sheep to count. ( sigh)
Glad my wee poem brought back warm memories.
When the contest is done , I m going to edit and put cheeks* instead of heads.. the sound is far more smooth.
Your review was helpful , thanks!
Keep safe!

Cheeks on chest does sound better - the alliteration works well and 'cheeks' fits with 'heartbeats'. Glad I mentioned it!

Me too !
It?s also the more appropriate word .( biggrin)
Keep safe!

You achieved a lot in this 15 or less love poem. Kudos to you. I enjoyed it. Of course, I would have liked more, but it is a good piece of writing despite the restraints. Thank you for sharing and good luck in the contest.

Hello , thank you for the kind review.
My favourite format is 5-7-5 or less.
I like the challenge to create a feeling with very few words. ( biggrin)
Keep safe!

You conjure a lovely image of togetherness, snuggled and nuzzled, fused as one nestled in the covers. It's a perfect sensation and a wonderful way to head into sleep. I very much enjoyed your love poem.

Thank you so much for the lovely review. I'm glad that my wee poem delighted you.
I count sheep now but I used to have a cat that snuggled on my chest/bosom and I could hear his heart beat ...it was a very cosy feeling . I miss that.
Keep safe!
