Short Good Night Poem X

Would you close your eyes

and feel the stars

sing serenades above your window?

Would you lean into

whatever comfort

is around you; the ground, the bed?

Would you let me take you

out on adventures

that do not wear and tear your heart?

Would you welcome

the end of day

had it ever the most splendid start?

We need night to redefine morning.

In the lightest slumber there is rest.

For you let your spritit

come that much closer to peace

once you lay your head down

and sleep.

Short Goodnight Poem IX

Another rhyming one. Reminds me of the ones I used to hear when I was a child. Enjoy and sleep tight.

Lazily gazing down,

the moon, with her crown,

laughs joyfully and free

while she's playing with the sea.

Sighing deep in slumber

the birds don't mind the thunder

just beyond the shore;

they dream of myth and lore.

Buried deep in summer grass

lies a gleaming pearl of glass.

Go to sleep and you will find

that beauty deep within your mind.

Short Goodnight Poem IIX

Another rhyming one. Sort of self-comfort really. Been one of those days. Enjoy.

 
The hour is late and waning yet,

the future looks blurry -nothing is set.

The day has passed, in its willful way.

The sun grows uncertain, the shadows stay.

Take comfort in knowing you tried to do good;

things will fall how they should.

Just trust in the light, you can sleep safe and tight.

There is nothing to do here tonight.

Short Goodnight Poem VII

It's okay to be small-

you'll grow up in a while.

It's all right to be scared,

but you don't have to worry.

I will be here, when shadows close.

I will be here, even if you don't see me.

I will be here, so you can sleep tight.

Nothing will hurt you tonight.

Short Goodnight Poem VI

Simmer down little one,

the heat is fleeting.

Take your bow,

like the sun,

as it shimmers

into night.

Let the puffs

of angels breaths

cool your sweaty brow.

Simmer down and go to sleep,

like the crimson heavens.

Short Goodnight Poem V

Flickering lights of softness,

flushed roses in a bed of down.

Troubles forgotten,

left behind.

Now we go to sleep.

Short Goodnight Poem IV

Snuggle deep beneath the cover,

feel the warmth surrounding you.

Soon you will go safe in slumber

to meet fellow journeyers

and have the merriest adventures.

Feel the salt of weary sleep,

like drops of ocean you may keep,

singing lullabies of joy

and whispering of peace.

Short Goodnight Poem III

Seems these goodnight poems are quite popular so I thought I'd publish another one. I know it's quite similar to the latest one, but maybe this will tickle your fancy more, who knows. Either way, enjoy and sleep tight.

Close your eyes and listen

to the silent sounds of night.

Hear the stars twinkle

and the innocent breaths of sleep.

There is only harmony

within the halls of your mind.

There we will dance in moonlight,

you my darling, and I.

Short Goodnight Poem II

Outside, the brazen moon

is dancing limbo with the stars.

Inside it's warm and you and I

will dance with dreams tonight.

All that's good will come to you,

for you are strong and true.

Tonight is all about the sleep,

so rest, the moon will keep

you safe from any harm.

Short Goodnight Poem

Temper the stardust
floating right by,
measuring time by the swirl
of a magical cane.
Siphon the hope
of dragons you’ve slain.
Spin it to thread
and pull.
