Today's Sermon


YOU WERE ASLEEP

when I came to bed all
curled up like a child


under the blanket and 
when I slipped in be-


side you as quietly as
I could you stirred but


didn't really wake and
stretched our a hand to


cup my face as if you were
holding a bowl or a ball.

~ James Laughlin, 1914 - 1997
