Restless Sleep

A restless night sleep A restless night sleep All the evening long A restless night sleep Tossing and turning Tossing and turning Sleep is hard to seek Bess wakes up tired She looks for a sale For a new mattress Going store to store Until she finds it

Hi Darlene I think instead of a new mattress you need to have some partner , may be a cat or a friend.......... if our inside is peaceful then it does not matter whether we sleep on earth or on a new bed.............Anyway , you again point out an issue during sleep which no one ever write about.Many people had the same feeling during sleep including me but no one ever penned it out.... thanks and have a sound sleep......

Could be a little more descriptive and in-depth but a cute poem nonetheless.

The repeated lines drive the message through, Darlene. It's terrible when we are tired and yet sleep refuses to humor us! ~ Best regards // paul
