often a really good night's sleep eludes me.
there are reasons-a too good book that can not be put to rest.
a sudden doze & jolt- a story that wakes me- luring on to one more page-
did I sleep? did I dream? did I lose my page?
sometimes it just doesn't happen.
are there too many books in my room?
that my bedroom could double as a library might not help-
but I would rather lose sleep than books.
my quest for sleep leads me to quests for the perfect bedroom-a perfect place where sleep never eludes.
I don't seek the most chic, or most stylish
I only seek the most alluring-
that just right one that eluded the blonde in the fairy story.

that just right one that eluded the blonde in the fairy story.
oh so charming-
but maybe a too small-
would I still feel a bit over run?

there are books in abundance here too.
bedroom of Stephen Long, London from English Style
this one-
though not a lover of yellow-
this has me thinking I might love sleeping in a field of yellow daisies.
I do love the cocooning effect of the canopied curtains.

as I imagine living in one large space one day-
something on the order of one of these iconic rooms that would be just right.

yes-
one of these might be just right.
