Lorazepam
A blanket of silent fluffy fog
Liquid-smooth muscles at rest
Dreamy with drifty thoughts
Tea-kettle steam pre hiss
No worries, no woes
No wrinkly, scrinkly nose
Lemon and honey tea
Not sleeping; not waking;
Nowhere to go; nothing to do
Float through a limp lazy day
June gentle breeze
Swaying lovely willow trees
Like silky warm skin
Sleeping on a sandy beach
Cows graze in the field
Creeks meander along slow
(Meander is a funny word.)
Lovers in naked embrace
Smooth jazz in the evening
Song sparrows sing in the sun
After Thanksgiving-dinner nap
Ice cream and mint tea
Foot massage and back rubs
Sleep in on Sunday till ten
Mountain meadow’s crystal stream.
If it ends in p-a-m
It’s the good stuff.
