If sleep is not at all deep Do not self-pity and weep Mind's sanity, you must keep Then benefits, you can reap After a sedative consumption If happens no sleep-resumption Mind wavers is the presumption It is a very perfect assumption Your mind, you must have to tame For sleeplessness, it is to blame If it aims for name and great fame It may lose sleep in this life-game How to sleep everyday peacefully? How to relax daily very gainfully? How to meditate highly successfully? How to live this fine life usefully? Answers are made easily available Amidst tears, life-boat is sail able To do the duty, God is ever favorable A pure mind makes peace obtainable Be dutiful leaving to God the result Be prayerful for God's heart to melt Proper sleeping pattern for an adult Is tied secretly in a man's own belt To deeply sleep, do proper meditation During sleeping time, avoid cogitation Keep your mind calm stopping agitation Allow not in tears, heart-irrigation Pray, work, earn and take adequate rest Welcome sleep who is a temporary guest Soundest sleep is always the truly best Sleep clears mind of Yesterday's dust Though sleeping state is only temporary Benefits of sleep are really exemplary Sleep is lost by an unnecessary worry And of course by having too much merry Life's happenings, mind must balance In bank account, there must be balance Pray during night's superior silence Peace and sleep will come in abundance. mvvenkataraman |

A thoroughly enjoyable read. Frankly, I must tell you that it is very late here in the Midwest (early for some)and I was considering cashing in my chips until I came upon your poetry... Now I've changed my mind and will likely read it again. I don't know whether to thank you or curse you. I might add since you brought it up, that I very much enjoyed the rhyming. ...just bein' Bluesy |
