I'm so tired I should sleep But something's keeping me awake The creaking floorboards no longer creak There's only so much quiet I can take Take a moment, just relax Shut my eyes, green and blue balls Send out a rather important fax Count the flies on the wall Chilly kitchen lilnolium floor Coffee left over from mother Hold my chin in my hands, I'm bored Think about waking up tomorrow morning Oh brother! We see them come. We see them go. Some are fast. And some are slow. Some are high. Some are low. Not one of them is like another. Don't ask us |

a most unusual title, I too, enjoyed. "I walked beside the evening sea and dreamed a dream that could not be." George William Curtis |

Joy, nice to see you here! Don't you just hate it when you know you need to sleep and your mind won't turn off? Hope it's sweet dreams next time. To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

Apprehending tomorrow as toil slave to sunrise or the clock which whirls this modern world to existence To be bothered to greet the day all have said dawn and dawn again |

Hi. Glad you all liked this. Just a quicky. And I was tired the next morning if you were wondering.  Joy Our doubts are traitors, And make us loose the good we oft might win By fearing to attempt. ~Shakespeare |
