An Ode to Nap Time… April 22, 2008

Nap time, oh nap time, how you have been my friend.
I can scarcely believe our time together is drawing to an end.

I remember when first I learned your name,
You were the only thing that kept me sane.

And now my children have grown beyond your grasp,
How has time had such a big laps?

Oh to quickly you have fled and vanished,
To soon from my home you have been banished.

It was a good run, I must admit,
That daily hour and a half I’ll never forget.

To sit and stare at the wall
While downing ice cream, says it all.

Good-bye my dear, dear friend,
It is time to accept that this is the end.
