SLEEP! SLEEP! SLEEP!
SLEEP
Sleep, sleep, sleep
It’s magnificent and nice,
With dreams beyond wonder,
Sleep! sleep! sleep!
Sleep, sleep, sleep
Eyes tightly closed,
A little smile on you r cheeks,
Feeling the warm sensations
Of the pure and precious sleep,
Sleep! sleep! sleep!
Sleep, sleep, sleep
Forgetting insane things of the mixed world outside
Relax my little one, feel the gentle breeze,
Do not worry about tomorrow, do not weep,
Wake up fresh in the morn with a recuperated mind,
Fresh and blessed with a wonderful sleep,
SLEEP, SLEEP, SLEEP!

some say sleep is what we would miss most if we had to live without it...it's true. those of us that have trouble sleeping usually end up with 'suicide' on how they died. really, it should have said 'insomnia'. feels like your living one long day...i know from experience. nice poem! ! i like how you used the chant throughout. keep writing! !
