Sleepy slumber
Why you walo
Why must you stay today?
There is work that must be done
So why do you walo
Why must I sleep today?
The days go by
As I slumber and
Sleep the days away
I wake to find
A tree wrapped in vines to climb
My body awake
The beautiful smell
I come out of my shell
To eat my sorrows away,
This poem I make just to pass time away
So I can stay awake today
