Sleep

Day 16: We are all rather tired today, so naturally the topic of sleep was chosen as our rhyme for today.

Max found a number of words that he liked, that rhymed with sleep: weep, creep, deep, beep, cheap and cheep, heap, keep, leap, peep, reap, seep. The next task was to decide which ones we wanted to use and what we wanted to say about sleep.

If you don't get enough sleep, it can make you very grumpy and totally ruin your day. So, it is extremely important that you get your head on a pillow early and benefit from some quality dream time.

This brings me on to a poem that I wrote a couple of weeks ago about being tired, you can find a copy of it on Limey Limericks: Being Tired. It really is rather unpleasant being tired.

Not having enough sleep,
Makes you grumpy and weep.
You're drowsy all day,
What more can I say?
Head on your pillow, sleep deep.

It always feels very satisfying when you have had a good night's sleep.

No lie in today

6th October 2013

Cats need to learn that humans occasionally throw routine out of the window!

And so it is my turn to write a rhyme, only because the cat woke me up and I didn't get the lie in I thought I would. 

Routinely a cat


Silly cat, thinks he's a bird,
Chirruping just to be heard.
Wake up my belly's empty,
I need food and a'plenty,
And after all that, he purred. 


I really want to sleep but now I'm awake.
