NISHA, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: I fell asleep, / hearing melody
Last Line: Fell asleep dreaming.
Subject(s): Dreams; Sleep; Nightmares


I fell asleep,
Hearing melody
That fell from lip to lip.
The stars sang it
To the wind, that took it
To the rose, shivering in the cold of night.

The rose gave it
To the nightingale, who sang it
Back to the stars, the earth and the sea.
And I, to it listening,
Fell asleep dreaming.
