Sleep-Away Camp (Sort Of...) Poem by Susan Lacovara

Sleep-Away Camp (Sort Of...)

Rating: 5.0


I cannot fall into the deep sea
Of sleep tonight
Knowing you sleep alone
Just beyond the bridge
I wish to be cradled up
In that first embrace
With fingertip touches
Tracing your face
So to remember it
On a night such as this
When the hours crawl
And the shadows stretch my imagination
Beyond the breeze blown by the bedroom fan
To the small of your back
Where I found such rest
