Bedtime Musings

Tomorrow is another day
Miss Scarlet taught me that.

So on my pillow head will lay
in arch of back my cat.

My 'coutrements are washed and ironed
so I can hit snooze twice.

My cylinders are justly oiled
think I'll sleep well, that's nice.

You have a unique way of getting your words down Nancy, I can almost tell its written by you without seeing your name. Your signature runs through your rhyme beautifully my dear.

Very cool poem, Nancy. Had a cat that thought my head was a pillow twice. It's great having the freedom to sleep in and just relax. Got a happy feeling from your poem! Love, Carolyn
