Rescued

The splendor of thought

Is in its diversity.

Seldom are my thoughts

Glued to each other.

 

The day is long

And the night too short.

Sleeping gets in its way.

Ah refreshing sleep.

 

I spend hours

Longing for

The night to come by

And rescue me from daylight.

After reading what Ron wrote, I'll never complain about occasional insomnia again!! I'm starting a Plant Room. I can putz around in there to get sleepy again.

Love ya!

Sleep sure can be wonderful. My days are long as well, and so filled with thoughts and activity that I sometimes get behind on my restful sleep. My sleep has been interrupted all night long for over 20 years because I have to turn and can no longer do it myself naturally. It is hard on my sleep time.

Ron
