Standing Up From Sleep

R-ising up from slumber I-s good to the mind; C-omplete hour of sleep H-as made you feel fine. E-arly rise from slumber L-ets you have a fresh start; L-ight ahead will shine, E-vening chill will depart. S-tanding up from bed A-fter the sweet, sound sleep N-ever lets you feel bad on a promise that you keep. L-et the twentieth November U-se the dream so deep I-n waking you up from slumber, S-tanding up from sleep.
