Sleep Walking

Gail was very tired
A rough day at work
She went to bed early
To get a good rest

Her husband Willy 
Soon followed her
Both in deep slumber
It did not take long

Wendy got out of bed
She went to the dresser
Opened her jewellery box
Then changed her earrings 
light 
In the morning light
She went to the mirror
She noticed a change
Two earrings in one ear

oops...I almost missed that :-) Keen and cute thoughts. All the best and keep us smiling :-) -- Wendy and Gail - are they same or different? Or is it deliberate to give the sleep-walker a different persona? I do not suggest any change. Let it evoke the thoughts. After all, that is the mandate of poems. No?
