Should you like to view the shrike
or have a butchers take a hike
to where they nest while at rest
but better yet sneak a peek
at the dancing yet docile
and stupid blue-footed booby
as it will make you smile
for they have no need to choose
a pair of blue suede shoes
and how to catch them
there's no secret you would keep
it's best when they're sound asleep
yes can you guess
if you dare when they nap
to snare one two or a few
use a blue-footed booby trap
In spring we come out to see life,
out from our long cold winter's nap.
Bears are so loving not wildlife.
Love can be grand.
I am your big fun bear asap,
you are my fury playful wife,
I love to see you in gift-wrap.
Tonight we need some fun nightlife,
eating fish not from a flytrap,
using my big claws not a knife,
Love can be grand.
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 around 1 or 2 o’clock, a siesta!
Usually, I begin by laying on my back
Close my eyes, maybe wear a solid batman mask
And prepare myself.
There’s a huge pool of dream energy
An aquarium bubble on the opposite side of Earth
That’s ½ that’s in the dark ... all sleeping
In this gigantic Dream Bauble
So far away ... I lure it to me
Singing my dreamsongs and as I close my eyes
I lose clarity then regain it by “seeing”
This Dream Bubble floating toward me
I reach out and put it on like a backpack
A Dream Battery Pack and I’m hooked in
So much dream energy pumping thru my brains
Both halves being zapped simultaneously
So powerful, I only need about
45 minutes to an hour
To fully recharge!
I love power naps!
Trying to spring clean
And muscle spasms are a thing
So I’m forced to take pain pill
And now I’m sleepy lost my will
So gonna take a Power Nap
Then give dust bunnies a zap
It sucks being chronically ill
Yet poetry gives me a thrill still
My dogs like to find hidey holes
Putting their backs against couches
Curling themselves into dark corners
Sleeping where they can, when they can
Wiser than most humans
dogs lie at my feet
worn out from constant napping
fire pops lively
i must take a snooze
taking a page from their book
a fireplace nap
Greydar nap, second wind,
Wind swept rain, all good,
Good for plants, no sweat,
Sweat sun, good in hood!
(Loop poem).
I take a little nap
it was accidental
but still wonderful
the dogs are lying on me
so I cannot get up right away
they are delightful
neither has any idea how big they are
my feet are both asleep
but it was worth it
when I can rouse myself,
they go outside to romp and frisk about
I am a lot slower, but refreshed
a little nap on the couch
is something I look forward to
now that I am finally retired.
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 the now
Leaving my dancing dogs smiling
And excited for our soon to be.
See you soon.
this is the sleeping house
three dogs with full tummies
they snore away
these happy sleep sounds encourage me to nap
This will be my second nap of today
I cannot stop myself
I climb onto a couch
cover myself with a fuzzy blanket
wake up with dog slobber on my face
they want me to play
Tuesday of last week was humdrum said Cap
I had to take a luxurious old person’s nap
Boredom put me down hard, I reposed in a stream
Ready for an exciting adventuresome dream
My body loved it so much, he wanted another
But alas, I was awakened by my hundred-year-old-mother
Did you feed the chickens? The horses? The sheep?
I had to leave my castle and surrender my sleep.
I lie in the grass
after it has been mowed
the sun is bright
I like staring into it
until I think my eyeballs will go blind
I close them
give a long sigh
there is a wild flower to my right
I pluck it and slowly close my eyes again
ready for a nap in the sun
in the grass
there is nothing better
A warm summer sun
one eyed dog yawn’s and stretches—
Old man starts snoring
Insanely bad mood
Snippy and snarling
He is four-years-old
Fighting his nap time
Baby sitter folds
He falls asleep
at six o’clock
when parents come
to take him home
grouchy boy
cannot eat
wants his bed
routine
broken
sad
,,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.
My clothes full of cotton,
sadly the Fabric foresworn,
of all the drawn scorn.
And as my face touches the couch,
I heard my mother from the other side of the room: ,,Don't jump so heavely in you grouch!".
My socks were dirty from work,
but I didn't care of the later lurk.
So I kept them on,
and even the Jacket full of sweat of you son I wore,
now was like s blanket for me for sure.
I didn't care even I was hungry or thirsty,
cause it didn't overcome my mind bursty.
Sleep overcame me like a incatation,
,,Just a nap in noon I'll take" now was just a citation.
No I dreams had I think, even though humans get thousand sick.
On display I was hours or an inch,
cause I didn't wanted to wake up ever since.
