April 2, 2022 - I'll Try Again
I'll Try Again

Bedtime once more, the fight begins.
It's prime to get a good night's sleep,
instead, my mind's alert on pins
and needles with thoughts in a heap.
Sometimes I laugh, sometimes I weep.
I think, I read, or watch TV,
trying to distract, seeking the deep
REM to set my weary brain free.
                             ~~Judi Van Gorder
