the clock has just struck four i'm tired, so very, very tired the lids of my eyes are becoming heavy and I can barely keep them open my breathing is slower, deep and even the rhythmic cadence is drawing me nearer to the brink of obscurity i am slowly sinking into a black abyss from which there is no return my nodding head begs to be laid to rest it is increasingly difficult to function but function I must for I have work to do and responsibilities that are mine alone i must not succomb to nature's bidding but oblivion threatens to overtake me it's quiet, so very, very quiet my hold on reality is slipping i'm falling into the downward spiral deeper and deeper i...zzz...zzz...zzz... zzz...zzz.. zz... z.. .

Dark Angel, 'bty' I most certainly did take it as a compliment that you want to read this poem again before you go to bed tonight! Hope it helps you slip off to sleep perchance to slumber! Night! Night! Don't let the bed bugs bite! Love, Light & Laughter Linda |

 (big hugggsssssss) Oh Linda, this is powerfully emotional, sweet friend, sometimes I feel this oblivion too when I am lost in my doldrums of loneliness when I yearn for Joanna but know through the night He will always supply you with His blanket of light! (sigh) This is touching, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you!
