Sandman Passed Me By

Tired this morning! LOL

She rolled over, went to
sleep; I, on the other
hand, lay awake, watching
lightning flash and hearing
thunder roll amid the
sound of gentle snoring.
At least someone got rest -
the sandman passed me by.

Karla,
I like the contrast in this poem; "...hearing thunder roll amid the sound of gentle snoring." Well done! Love and Hugs*

Hope the sandman let you have a rest today and I hope that the weather left you alone to dream peacefully while you slumbered.

Having fibromyalgia, the sandman and I are not on good terms, so I appreciated this! It was written as if we, the reader, were right beside you. Blessings and long nights of snoring to you, lol! Michelle

Metallica lyrics come to mind... sorry I'm being morbit this morning, lol.

Hush little baby, dont say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
Its just the beast under your bed,
In your closet, in your head...
