The windows are open

Tonight it is supposed to get down to 49 degrees....I love
it!!!! There is nothing better than to have the windows
open...the air blowing through the curtains...the covers
pulled up around your face...the cool night's air feels so
good. I know it will be warm tomorrow...but tonight I will
cherish every single moment.

Which brings me to a very important subject. Something so
important that it may just be the most earth shattering
question I have ever asked....

Here goes....

Do you like to sleep with your feet under the covers or
sticking out of the covers? I personally like my feet
outside of the covers. I would be willing to bet that I am
in the minority on this one. When I was a child I would
pull the covers up all around me...especially when I was
scared. It was as if the covers were some kind of force
field that could keep all of the evil out in the world.
Surely no monsters could ever penetrate such a powerful
blanket as mine!!!

I'm in a pretty good mood this evening...which is not that
typical for a Sunday evening...since Monday morning is
right around the corner.

This is going to be another short and sweet journal entry.
For some reason my entries are not as interesting unless
they are filled with angst. Hmmmm...must be a sign of the
times. No one wants to hear good news...just the bad
stuff. With Mondays being what they are, I am sure I will
have a more interesting entry tomorrow.

Tonight I leave you with another poem....

Dream

I am the night.
The unending absence of light.
I am the calm that comes before the storm
I am the birth pangs of paradise unborn.

My heart like the sea, depths yet uncharted
Vast and turbulent, it's secrets guarded.
My soul like the heavens, imprisoned above
Lost in the shadows, crying out for love.

Little things they mean so much
The magic of a song; tenderness of a touch
The warmth of my bed on a cold winter's night
Drifting away softly, content in my plight.

Where lies my purpose?
What does life mean?
My head in the clouds,
I dream endlessly.
