the sky ritual

preparing for sleep, in the comfort of a diligent day
you slip beneath sheets supernatural
we meet in the underworld journey, beneath the pillow’s shadow

as our voyage comes round, I rise to order
the dream dwelling, I purify my personal palette
colors, aromas, and sounds – still slumber in ghostly grays

I sit upright
holding no doubt of your arrival
my sunrise

with our settings readied
once again
we will love this day together
