Sweet Dreams
Sweet Dreams?
Sleep, Sleep, Sleep, all I want is sleep.
I tried everything, including counting sheep.
The temperature keeps going up and down,
Trying to sleep in heat makes me frown,
I go outside for some fresh air,
Trying to figure out how to be without a care,
My mind keeps spinning around and around,
Someday, my sanity might be found,
I know it has a lot to do with my anxiety,
So, I do my best to just sit quietly,
Maybe someday I can afford a pet,
For now, I will just try to rest,
Why I have anxiety is beyond me,
Sometime in my life, I must have gone crazy,
Or maybe my parents are right and I'm just lazy,
Maybe the answers will come to me soon,
and hopefully, I will find sleep before tomorrow noon.
Sweet Dreams!

Nice poem Renee. We've all been there at one time or another - that yearning for sleep which just doesn't seem to ever arrive.
I learned long ago while living in the noisy city that there is an enzyme in milk which helps one to sleep. Little known to most people, the same enzyme exists in bananas. I know this for a fact because one night when I couldn't sleep I went to get some milk but found that I was out ... so I used bananas ... stuck one in each ear and went right to sleep *wink*.
Nice poem. Thank you for sharing. [8- )

Have got to do with finding sleep ?
All we do is just sit and eat
We think this is all we have to keep to sleep .
We sure are crazy , for we agree we are lazy .
But sleep comes assuredly
When with the herd we keep ,we find Time so hard for sleep. <3
