Night Can'T Wait For Summer Poem by Lea Simpson

Night Can'T Wait For Summer



Huge clumps of homogenous night
Don’t you need a holiday?

Haven’t you run out of twisted delight for keeping my sleep at bay?

It’s it time you had some peace?
It’s a tough job that you do
Praying writing, counting sheep
The things I do to you

When does the darkness get a break
From keeping little old me awake?

Watching me scribble toss and turn
I’m convinced some decent rest’s been earned

I’m sure the night can’t wait for summer
Summer’s a shorter shift

More light means less time for slumber
And less time to keep me from going adrift

Decent rest has been earned over here too, I believe. But I just have a big problem with spending it. But I'm-a learn'n. Good contribution, thanks.
