Slowly sleep unwraps itself from me
I pull the curtain back and see the sun,
I waken taken by dream’s imagery.
Once we stayed in Aldeburgh by the sea.
The sunrise showed the fishermen begin.
As slowly sleep unwrapped itself from me
The coloured boats looked beautiful and free
I store that image in the web within
I waken taken by dream’s imagery.
My peaceful eyes were washed by coloured sea.
The image murmured to its inner kin
Slowly sleep unwrapped itself from me
I sing of joy and sorrow and am free.
I hold no thoughts of conquest,death or sin
I waken taken by dream’s imagery.
That which is without is yet within.
As day ended so day shall begin.
Slowly sleep unwraps itself from me.
I waken glorified by imagery.
