Notes About The Poem
Tribute challenge contest Sponsored by Oliver Mckeithan

Insomnia



Another
Restlessly
Wakeful night

Thoughts keep on
Dusk till dawn
Sleep walking

Close my eyes
One more try
Oo, popcorn!

Hello Crystol, I have never had insomnia. Do you have it often? You must be very tired in the morning. Hugs. /Darlene/

Melatonin tea might be a better choice lol. I'm thankful I rarely experience insomnia but the few times I have it miserable. Nice take on the contest Crys

Lol much better than popcorn! My doc says it's part of menopause ugh. Melatonin works as good as anything I've found and much beer for you than sleeping pills! Ty for commenting! Xo
