Perks of never sleeping,

Although sleepless,

No muddled mane,

No bed needing to be made,

No demand for pajamas,

No war with your bed, 

Twenty-four hours in each day


The author's comments:

Theodore is a character who has inspired all of my writing for the last year. This poem is about his on-going war with sleep.

Thank you. I have a theme for the year of 2015. See if you can distinguish my characters: Rae, Jackie, and Theo
