Y-A-W-W-W-N

Time to pen a poem
  before I go to sleep
a line or two to make 'em laugh
  though some may choose to weep

So, how's your day, anyway?
  Pretty good, I heard you say
How was mine? Just Y-A-W-W-W-N, fine
  ~ stumbling 'cross the finish line

Hello Gershon, you either did not sleep well. Or woke up quickly because of a nightmare. Enjoy your evening my friend.

Seems like I have many, many days like that, gw. I am learning my days are what I make of them!

Just a typical day, huh? Very like many (most) of mine. I especially identified with the extended yawn...lol

Though some may choose to weep…before I go to sleep. A third family member to die this year. My beloved Aunt, the picture of health, was taken by the angels in her sleep. Never the one you expect. Still we all would want to go so peacefully though her loved ones weep. My cousins thought they’d have 25 more years.

Oh, boy. You are going through the wringer, Kim. May your Faith strengthen you in this time and this year of sorrow. Tears and Healing, Gershon
