A favourite subject is Sleep
In poems frequently portrayed
I am fascinated by its mystery
how you all take it for granted
so much of your life is spent
am I the only one curious
is there another wife in this other life
a different job to sleep until I awake
at least that idea is put to bed
because my nights are disturbed
but some sleep so soundly
they never awake in the night
so I will never know until
the last sleep mayhap
