Why is it when we lie down at night to get some sleep
Our mind won’t shut down so our eyes can peep
And then when the magic hour arrives for us to wake
A few more zzzzzzzz’s we wish to take
Is it our age and body that is the culprit
Or perhaps our mind and all that is in it
Just one time I would like to lie down at night
And be off to sleep without a fight
Today I’ll work myself hard and fast
So that when my head hits the pillow I’ll sleep at last

Loving this one it made me smile, so true. 🌹
Did you get a chance to read the one I posted Sunday? Curious to know your thoughts. Keep in mind, my overall goal is to make one smile upon reading my wild and crazy rants and raves, or short stories such as it may be.
So true. It made me smile since I know the feeling well.
