Rubber Ducky Poetry Hour

The bed
A sacred place
Of comfort
Of love
Of safety

While we sleep
We battle for the covers
Elbows in the ears
Me sawing logs so loud
That the neighbors complain

You poke me to shut me up
I steal the covers because I am freezing
I hit you with a pillow for the offending elbow
But as I whimper and cry
You wrap your arms around me to comfort me from my nightmare

In the wee hours of the morning
You shower me with kisses
Whispering sweet nothings in my ear
As I snuggle closer to you
Sharing the blankets as I share my love

Even though there might be a battle
In this very bed at night
When the morning comes
Our love will shine through
For you and for me.
