The world around me is silent.
as the noises of the day gradually fall silent
as lights are dimmed one after another
as the body and mind langurously unwind
as the back relaxes at the support provided, finally, finally...
A deep sigh of contentment
as the mind is quelled, after a string of maddening chores
as the night deepens, the smallest noises enhanced
as far away I hear a chirping, a cricket perhaps?
as I sight the soft movements of shadows of night and dark
as I breathe deep to hang on to these rare minutes of sanity
as I draw the sheets closer
as I sink into a deep languid sleep

Great writing.. Forced to go back and recall Wordsworth or Tagore etc.. Try walking in a park near your home and see what comes to your mind.. Best wishes.
Really?! Thanks!
