spearmint and peppermint gum

Serenity

A bed in a room.
The swoosh of a blanket.
The thump of a heavy boot.
Outside of the window
the night sky
as dark as a shadow.

Eyes closed.
The clamor of dusk,
Serenity.

A cat prances, 
holds onto the edge.
The blanket drifts to the floor.
Curtains sway.
Chandeliers cast shadows
in the shape of trees.
The creak of a drawer.

Eyes closed.
The clamor of dusk,
Serenity.
