Poetry Challenge Day 18 – Sleep

Today’s Prompt: Write a poem that begins and ends with the same word. I barely kept my eyes open, but I did it!

SLEEP

Sleep beckons in the afternoon air
My heavy eyes close with no thought or care

But the day is young still with so much to do
Bake pizzas and cookies before the day’s through

I must keep moving my goals I will keep
Before I lay my head down in a luxurious sleep.
