Young mothers are sleep deprived
with dark circles under their eyes
But one must learn to sleep in winks
only then with your child you enjoy
Most are amazed at my ability
to sit or stand in sleep
Just 2 minutes of shut eye
and I am fresh as a new leaf
If I'd dare to stretch on the bed
for a few minutes of peace
minutes turn to hours
with the greatest of ease.
As my wonderful children grew
from sizes small, medium to large
My power nap increased
from short, medium to long.
And as they grew in size
they grew wise to realise
while mom sat shut eye for a while
her subconscious mind did it's best to come alive
And so,
they'd asked mom all kinds of questions
most were of things that were denied
as mom sat thru her shut eye
But her mind, struggled with incoherent replies
Squeals of laugh and excitement
for replies so disconnected and wild
While the kids tried their best for mom's unconscious consent
their mom suddenly awakens in daze and dissent
Now I am recharged and ready the natural way
not just to clean and clear the place
but to catch up on some me time
I missed during the day
Be it 2 minutes or twenty
You make think this nap is no big deal
but the surge after the power nap
adds to 3 hours of Zeal.
