I Got a Book

I got a book for Christmas

It sits beside my bed

I really want to read it

But I tend to sleep instead

 

My mind is so unsettled

I want to shut it down

To think about nothing

And watch my worries drown

 

I only hope that one day

When all my stress is gone

I remember how to have some fun

And get up right at dawn

 

I will read a book and write my blog

I will hang out with my kids

I'll lunch with friends and breakfast too

And celebrate worries rid

 

I got a book for Christmas

It sits beside my bed

I really want to read it

But I tend to sleep instead!
