The night speaks to me
It’s sound echoes through silence
Passing through damp leaves
Tag: sleep
So, I’m Awake
Yeah, well, I’m awake
Against my better judgement
Sleep’s power is strong
Alarm Clocks: A Haiku
Just ten minutes more
As the clock keeps beckoning
The demands of life
A Haiku About Cold Meds
Cold meds bring me gifts
Drowsiness which slows me down
So hard to wake up
Awakened, now returning to sleep
Awakened briefly
Activity around me
Now, again, silence
Awoke by my racing mind
Resisting waking
My chaotic mind distorts
Damaging my rest
My mind gets going, laden with fear and energy, heat building up in my scalp as the unfocused fears run unburdened by logic or balance. Unreasonable and irrational, disrupting my rest and my day.
Children’s Laughter
This sound
Laughing children
Always a delightful way
To awaken
Groan…It’s Morning
Feeling exhausted
Just not sleeping very well
And I don’t know why
Seduced by the Snooze Bar
Snooze bar seduction

This Long Night
Weariness drags me
I’ve been awake far too long
Dreams are beckoning
