Sleep, sleep, where’er you are
On the head of a pin
Or feather bed with downy pillow
Til suddenly jarred
Awake you are!
With cat’s subtle purr
And head-butting
Alarm is past!
And panic on!
Work is waiting
No time for breakfast
No time for news
Rush out the door and realise
Still wearing bedroom shoes!
Be glad you even have shoes on!
