Whilst I sleep

by JLR

As I lay my head upon this pillow
my declaration is, "I am a child of God."
then I float peacefully, as heavenly clouds billow.

Flashing, twinkling stars, beyond count, dance
as Spirit guides, embrace my higher self, awed
my thoughts are sealed in this nighttime trance.

As the edge of the dark turns to light
my earthbound day receives my soul unflawed
to begin anew; a full day, alive and bright.
