In response to The Daily Post’s Daily Prompt:  Bedtime

Bedtime (a silly poem)
©April 13 (really, the night of the 12th, 2016
By Vijaya Sundaram

If only I had one!
When all is said and done,
It’s in the land of sleep
We plunge in waters deep.
I find the night a lure –
For this there is no cure.
I like to count the hours
In poems or in stars.
I drink some tea and stare
At nothing, everywhere.
I’ve only gotten worse.
What, bedtime?  It’s a curse!
