Just Can't Sleep

The lights are out, the windows closed.

I’ve already counted all my toes

Mama says, “Go to sleep”

I’ve counted up to 1,000 sheep

I’ve tried warm milk,

My sister’s bed (she just smacked me on the head),

I’ve tried sleeping on the couch,

The dog was there. Boy, what a grouch!

Finally, I get back in bed

Thinking about when daylight comes

I’ll have to get up and do my sums

I start doing some in my head and

YAWN…

Good Night
