berry welsh wool blanket

Warm memories of a carthen.

Small child, big ideas
medium sized Welsh village,
deep valley near the sea.
King sized bedspread
berry shades
in the spare room
where I went
after nightmares;
snuggled under
cosy warmth,
closed my eyes
and happy dreams
filled my head
till morning.
