BAAAAAAAAD SLEEPING HABITS

 

Now I lay me down to sleep,

I pray I won’t count sheep…

If my mind

Continues to grind,

insomnia in will creep.

–

Trying not to stimulate thought,

But to sleep as I ought…

Keeping shoulders warm

To quiet the storm

In which I’d prefer not to be caught!

–

I sometimes get up and write

Or Bible-read, late at night…

It’s difficult to choose

What’ll help my mind snooze,

When I become too uptight.

–

There always is a snack,

That will gain my weight right back…

I’ve run out of chips

That went to my hips,

But a cup of milk is worth a lip smack.
