Sleeplessness

* Sleeplessness *
These weary eyes
Disconsolate sighs
Morning of yawning
A plodding day ahead
Is it an uncomfortable bed
Not enough air circulating
The bedroom is too hot
Or too chilly and drafty
Whatever it should be
This sleeping place is not
For on waking no refreshment
Instead tiredness dogs heels
Every move in a haze
Of wishing for more sleep
Limbs are heavy
Thoughts are leaden
These weary eyes
Disconsolate sighs
Morning of yawning
Need escape and relief
A decent night's sleep
For at least a decent week.
