When Sleep's Afoot

When sleep's afoot
  roaming the hills
Will pillows deign pursuit...

Yet when dreams linger
  waking's a beggar
knocking at your door

It is so hard for me to get out of beds some mornings, especially in the midst of a soothing dream (I had to get up at 4:30 last week, that was a struggle!)

4:30?! Wow! -- a.m. or p.m? ~ Sleepy
