Sleep and Dream

{Post: 322/365}
restless sleep
riddled with dreams
strangeness
fighting
crochet
passion and pain
obvious stress
and worry
keeping my dream life
full and busy
and my sleep
from being complete
hot flashes
potty breaks
thirsty for water
cats causing ruckus
crashing and banging
waking me out of a dead sleep
and causing my nerve ends
to jangle
hope for better
and restful sleep
tonight

Sleepy

{Post: 222/365}
too sleepy
yawn
and
yawn
and yawn
can barely keep my eyes
open
long busy day
using my brain
being
mentally productive
and now it is time
to sleep!

Sleepytime

{Post: 76/365}
late night
yawn after yawn
legs twitching
body aching
kidney twinges
eyes burning
can't wait
head on the pillow
covers pulled up tight
snug in my cozy bed
sinking into
sleeptime
dreamland
and hoping tonight
will be dreamless
(bad dreams lately)

Insomnia

{Post: 73/365}
isn't it odd
that when you should be tired
and sleeping like a baby
you are wide awake
body thrumming
mind racing
creating
whirling
thinking
wake dreaming instead
of dreaming in sleep
and otherwise
up and open to
night time possibilities
but everyone else
is sleeping
so quiet is a must
don't disturb the slumber
of the lucky people
whose minds and bodies
have naturally given them rest
just write a poem
drink sleepytime tea
and relax
hoping for sleep to come again

I Am Sleepy

{Post: 39/365}
eyes drooping
brain slowing down
things not making sense anymore
mind losing focus
images on tv becoming blurry
bones aching
legs becoming twitchy
head weighing heavily on my shoulders
big yawn
cannot wait to lay my head on the pillow 
and snuggle in deep
to warm covers
and surrender to blessed sleep
I am SLEEPY
goodnight

Can't Sleep

{Post: 28/365}
aching head
stress
mind racing
worry
lay staring
at the wall
thoughts
of what to do
of what I haven't done yet
of restlessness
needing change
can't sleep
I need
BEER!

Bad Dreams

{Post: 26/365}
drifting up 
from deep sleep
to the place of dreams
could be pleasant
but more often than not
is plagued with
weirdness
and 
bad feelings
sometimes fear
sometimes strangeness
last night I was
drowning
I managed to reach the shore
and then found myself
covered in leeches
and seaweed
I hate these things!
creepy and disturbing dream
but at least
it wasn't violent or bloody
which sometimes they are
dream meanings
are sometimes difficult to decipher
but apparently
I am drained emotionally
by negative thoughts
and need to trust my own instincts
more often
so says a dream dictionary!
who really knows...
I can do wthout
the leeches!
the seaweed!
and 
DROWNING!!

Blankies

{Post: 13/365}
warm
soft
cozy
cuddly
layers
of
blankies
feet tucked in beneath them
recliner bottom up
snugged deep into my spot
kitty warming my feet
another warming my side
comfy as can be
snug as a bug in a rug
and now...
I need to move!
