Thanks -- you and I share the joy of writing in poetic forms. I call it creative word gaming.

“To sleep, perchance to dream.” * - A Palindromic Nonet

We waited for night’s undressed slumber,
Shaking off the silver daylight
Whispering, beyond the rub.
“To sleep, perchance to dream.” *
Then enlightenment;
Love soon arrived
Completeness 
Became 
One 

One
Became
Completeness,
Love soon arrived.
Then enlightenment:
“To sleep, perchance to dream,” *
Whispering, beyond the rub,
Shaking off the silver daylight,
We waited for night’s undressed slumber.

* "To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub;" – From Shakespear's play, "Hamlet"  Act III. Scene 1
