Time To Sleep

Time to sleep

not to teach

My tired eyes

long to close

and descend deep

into that dream filled abyss

Come, kiss me, night

and soothe my pupils

who fight dust and heat

 

Time To Sleep

Thoughts

We used to have dust from the Sahara, blowing in from the south. Now we have our own dust irritating our eyes and covering our cars. The fields are bare. The ground is dry. Come forth dear rain.
