    Time for Bed

     A bowl of cereal
    Time for counting sheep
    I hear the sound of my children's feet
    Good night Mom yelled down the hall
    Go to sleep darlings light's on in the hall.
    Nodding my head as I drift off to sleep
    Lord keep us safe with no tears to weep.
    Just when I think my day's finally done.
    Into my room burst my only son
    Can't sleep Mommy I need one last kiss
    Next thing I knew there's noise in the hall
    The other two come join us into my bed
    they all crawl.
    Oh what I wouldn't do 
    For one moments peace
    I kiss they all and then we all fall
    Asleep.
    No room in the bed
    As I hang on tight
    Wishing you all a
    Peaceful Good Night

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
