Sleep

Sleep is what we all love Its lack is what we don’t deserve Always we crave for nice, long slumber She is the one which brings us vigor She makes us smile when we reach for her She holds us like a baby in her comfy warm hug She keeps us away from wearing works She is the one we always savor When she arrives after exhausting daytime She does demand certain settings Quiet and dark are two important things Tossing and turning are required sometimes From time to time you need to count some sheep Or concentrate on breathing for a little bit Guided relaxing meditation is helpful at times Sometimes some silent reading will do fine Once she arrives near us fully She closes our eyelids very gently She takes us in magic world of her tranquil lullaby Where we live our dreams and ideas and also fly Morning arrives when we open our eyes Feeling refreshed and relaxed after a sound night Thank you dear sleep for being in my life What would I do without your tender upkeep?
