Personal Addition #29


Good Night
W. S. Merwin

Sleep softly my old love
my beauty in the dark
night is a dream we have
as you know as you know
night is a dream you know
an old love in the dark
around you as you go
without end as you know
in the night where you go
sleep softly my old love
without end in the dark
in the love that you know


I really like this poem because of the repetition. It holds my attention and makes the poem flow really nicely.
