sleep - i wish many a night i wonder why i cannot sleep when all in the house around me are lost in dream so deep what can i do in these waking hours that hasn't been done by day there must be something i can do to while these hours away i watch tv,i read a book i've even taken a pill does any of it work? the simple truth is nill! i sit here filled with envy as all around me slumber knowing it'll be wee small hours before my bed i'll clamber sleep will finally take me to that place of rest a few precious moments a couple of hours at best! |

I suffered same from this grist and asked the angels for a kiss I asked for strange and other things and nothing brought relief it seems but write, I did, it brought relief from slumber's wake I would believe it brought a cure, I knew not when but sandman, now, he comes again write it out, then write, AGAIN, and you shall sleep, and snore, and then, someone shall nudge you in your dreams and ask "can you be quiet...again!" |

I'm very thankful I rarely have trouble with sleeping. You've written the frustration well.  |

Welcome to passions, zzz, nice cadence and rhyme. If you want to find a cure for insomnia you could try reading my work, that's been known to send fractious babies to sleep. Here's a small sample. I tried those pills to cure night ills they gave me chills and no thrills To sleep I went by those pills sent but my lament is my sanity bent And now I find that I unwind by poets kind who read my mind and offer care on nights we share or I despair and sleep's not there Don't worry zzz I'm sure you'll be sleeping like me when your mind is free. Pleasant dreams. Write on Kethry Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen. |
