Premium Member The Power Nap
At night, I kneel before the dark Say my prayers and park Next to the swimming pool of dreams While losing consciousness I sing songs pretending to be The Dream Master. I dive into the dreamworld Submersing myself into lucidity Attempting to get 6 to 8 hours of sleep. Daytime sleep is different Usually starts...

Premium Member Afternoon Nap
From a midday doze, A glimpse of paradise I saw. White light and puppies fumbling In a meadow green and yellow Filled my heart. I nodded forward to catch a Glimpse of God's smile. A forgiveness and a fulfilled spirit I felt, as the whole of my heart swelled up. Grateful and speechless, I cried the tears of overjoyed innocence. And settled back to...

A nap
,,Just a nap in noon I'll take", I always say in sudden, Since my eyes have already rotten, and my breath's beat forgotten.
