Hi Listfriends,

Many of us experience problems with sleeping. Maybe you will recognize (parts
of) the following poem.

Kees

Insomnia ?


Endless turning around in bed,
One side,
The other side
Turning to my back
Back to my side,
On my tummy for a sec,
And back again.
That is really no fun !!
So, I give and get up,
But, what to do??
My computer winks,
He is ready,
Waiting for me,
My computer,
With all kinds of software,
This is great !!
Sleeping is a must:)
But how long one needs to sleep,
I don’t know,
But I get enough rest,
Besides that,
It has one BIG benefit,
I can do many things,
I like that very much,
And do so very often,
The balance between both,
The search for sleep and working,
Is very difficult to find,
So that’s where I am fighting for,
A warning at the end,
Sleep is most important of all,
Work is on third or fourth place,
So look for a trace of sand,
And don’t fight the work of Sandman.
