Sleepless

I once had a friend named Mildred Who wiggled a lot in my bed, She’d snore with delight Her growl was a fright; I rang the alarm clock instead. -------------- “Without the right sleep, even the gentlest person can turn into a crazed beast!”—own quote -------------- John Freeman’s Dumb and Dumber Personal quotes 5/21/2015
