Nursery rhyme

I miss my little corner bed,
the angled ceiling of white wood,
the large leaves of the tropics pressed
like hands against the chequered panes:
the way they palpate in the breeze
a soothing note of tenderness.

The innocence that sleep encrypts
links childlike bliss to adulthood:
such lambent energy I had,
so fresh it seems in retrospect...

Yes, exactly, but this is a consolation.
