The prompt for this week’s Sunday Scribblings is sleep. As I tossed and turned this evening trying to get to sleep, I thought about those people who never seem to have a problem falling to sleep, regardless of where they are or what they are doing. I thought, since I couldn’t sleep anyways, I would pay tribute to those who are:
Tribute to the Sleepers of the World
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray this computer won’t beep,
Because I tried so hard to stay awake,
But there is only so much one person can take,
And so Lord, when I wake with the morning dew,
I promise, the rest of this food I will chew.
I only ask Lord, that you have them spare my ear,
And their snoring, we don’t have to hear.
I will go to sleep quietly, crying there will be not
I only pray Lord, for your help so I don’t fall off this pot!
