Counting Sheep

I once had a sleeping problem so bad I tried every drug my Dr had so a friend says to me away you must go and flee count sheep and fall asleep so to the country I went used my last of money I spent found a farm and I swear I did no harm I counted the sheep with no noise or even a peep I counted the whites then the blacks this should take away my plight and give me my sleeping nights back then I counted the spotted and even the dotted but it did not work for I feel that they plotted I wrenched my shirt til it was all knotted cried so hard til shepherd heard me he gave chase all the way to my place where he knocked me out and put me to sleep in a fast pace
