My mind is very tired
Full and overrun
Heavy eyes are calling
Relax, sleep overcome
Yet I cannot entertain
That thought of switching off
I’ll have a few more moments
Before quietly drifting off
I drift upon blue ocean
Calm yet nodding waves
Pebble lapping symphony
Palm trees breezy sway
Sunlight warmth of sand
Grains pure in soft hand
Dreaming ever further
In the quiet of the night
Long way off to morning
Rest in minds delight.
