[bodytext] => I lie here awake next to you, it’s 12:30 a.m. And wonder how you can rest so easily I tune into your breathing hope to catch it’s magic ride to slumber I get up and put the dogs outside I sit up in my favorite chair and soon fall into sleep It’s 4:07 a.m. and I am awaken once again Dreaming about being a soldier in a senseless war Dogs want out again—at least I am not alone This time I am on the couch I sit here mind urging sleep to return 5:26 a.m. the sun will be up soon Another night in 12,775 sleepless nights since I came home 6:15 a.m. grandchildren arrive to go to school The dogs want to go back outside At least they are consistant But this is my dog sleep world [comments] => 2 [counter] => 183 [topic] => 57 [informant] => docpardue [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => war )
