    Great, frantic rhyming, Milly. The layout of the piece really adds to the pace.

    Soothing voice
    and gentle hand
    take me back
    to La la land
    cast away
    those half world scenes
    so I can find
    much nicer dreams.

    Missing my mum too. Touched!

    Well done with this Milly! Brought me back to those days, heck sometimes now I wonder what ghosties roam about.

      Thankyou Brenda. I sometimes wonder too, especially at my Mums house, its very creaky....

    This is lullaby-like, and a really sweet poem. Evokes a lot of nostalgia. Everyone remembers calling for their parents to rescue them from the boogeyman.

    Did you mean to say ‘ghost aboard’ by the way?

    Thank you Daniel for your lovely comments very much appreciated but slightly confusing.. Im sorry but it doesnt say "ghost aboard" it says "ghost abroad" which has a totally different meaning :) best wishes Milly x

    Good afternoon, Milly.

    There is something 'half world(ly)' about nighttime. Those who suffer with insomnia know this all too well. It is like everyone is sleeping peacefully, leaving you awake dealing with a warped reality - every inanimate object somehow lives, or at least knows your thought. I liked your rhyming stanzas. Your choice of words made the, otherwise unnerving scene, playful and fun.

    Nice work. x

    You do pour out some unique ink from your quill :) A well rymed piece about all those night time antics that play us up.

    Oh the joys of being an insomniac with an overactive mind... It's certainly no fun in the morning xx

    I love this. Kinda flows like a lullaby and it’s grand. I relate to this a little too much. I have a lot of trouble falling asleep but not quite as much when I go visit my mother. There’s nothing like the comfort of home.
