Turbulence

Listen to poem:

It’s time to sleep and yet my hyper mind races refusing to settle a whistling pressure cooker a jittery volcano ready to explode I take a deep breath and then another and another turbulent seas finally settle finding their way to serenity AP: 3rd place 2021 Posted on November 12, 2019

Some nights are like that. My toss’n turn was last night but at least I’ve had several days of real sleep.

Life is such a rat race LINE, that our brain is still racing when we go to bed. I always do a little poetry before I sleep, it soothes me. I understand your poem completely and how beautiful it is when serenity comes! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
