First Night Misery Chapter Five

I lay awake most of the night,
Although, I wasn't in too much pain,
Even though I tried to doze off,
I couldn't switch off my brain.
My hubby was extremely vocal,
Every time he moved around,
He was rather fidgety,
He made one or two gruff sounds.
My dog was restless,
I think it's because I moved his bed,
I did it to make more room for me,
So over it, I don't have to tread.
I had to get up once or twice,
Or maybe it could have been three,
It's a good job my crutches were close by,
For the many times, I needed to pee.
I finally got up at five thirty,
I struggled down the stairs,
I made myself a brew,
What a sad state of affairs.
I put my feet up on the sofa,
From upstairs, I could hear my dog snore,
I've hardly slept at all,
I'm surprised I haven't swore. 
No doubt I'll catch forty winks later,
After my meds and physio,
Today, I will rest up,
Maybe back to bed, I'll go.

When You're Rested

Have a little time for yourself
Yes just a little time for yourself
Take that book down from off the shelf
Read a while have some time for yourself

Take a break in your day for a rest
Yes just an hour for a little bit of rest
Lay on the couch put your feet up it’s the best
Lay right back and have a little rest

Have a nap in your day if you can
Power naps are good for woman and for man
Take yourself up to the bed if you feel wan
Have a nap catch forty winks if you can

When you’re rested you will feel really great
Yeah your body and your mind will feel great
When you just chill out this is your fate 
To end up feeling really, really great

Then the rest of the day will be a breeze
Oh the rest of the day will be a breeze
All you’re chores will be done with the greatest ease
If you take the time yourself to only please
