Tossing, turning,
Twisted sheets,
Sweating, watching clock,
Listening.
Hour upon hour passes,
Anxious to hear alarm,
No sleep, no rest.
Finally a drift into the deep,
Means one hour of sleep,
Better than none,
Cold nose on face.
Pummeled in head,
Portable alarm hits floor,
Water is lapped,
Crap, awake again!
Open door to let out friend.
Settle down, maybe,
Slumber will return,
Tossing, turning,
Fan on, Oh yes,
This is nice,
Awake to cold kitty spray on neck,
Baby!
Where did you come from?
(Day begins when night never ended. Kids and cats make life wonderful.)
