An elephant
is sitting on my chest.

A spider
has spun webs across my brow.

A crow
has made two nests upon my head.

Five leeches
suck the blood from off my toe.

A mare
has clamped her teeth upon my ear.

Gorillas
try to break my spinal cord.

Six baboons
keep on pulling on my beard.

Then I awaken
kneel and thank the Lord!

You have a beard?  LOL...
You made me smile, and that, my friend,
has started my day off just right!

Thanks to everyone for the feedback.
No beard now but eight years ago I did sport a beard of sorts. It ain't fun having it pulled--I assure you. My youngest daughter enjoyed pulling my beard when she was a toddler. That smarts! LOL!

Glad you enjoyed.
God bless!
