I'm finding it hard to sleep I lay down, close my eyes and begin counting sheep What is wrong with me My eyes just won't stay closed Let's count sheep again Look! there one goes One lonely sheep I saw it jump over the moon Then the weirdest thing happened A dish ran away with a spoon Sheep and moons, dishes and spoons I don't know how this all began But counting sheep isn't easy When you only find one in the clan As I lay here looking for sheep I look at the clock and see that thirty minutes has passed Then I wondered what happened to all the sheep Just how long will this desertion of sheep last Come on, I need to get some sleep But I can't until the sheep come back Mr. Shepherd Boy please help me Get the sheep back on the right track Bring then back my way So I can count their little heads Then maybe when I reach one hundred I will fall asleep in bed Look, I see one He just jumped in the lake Maybe the shepherd boy made a mistake Hey, there is another one He jumped in the lake too Oh boy, I'll never get to sleep If this is all that they do Mr. Shepherd Boy What did you do to my sheep Fix then and send them home I really want to sleep I want to count their heads As they walk throught the gate By the time that they ALL make it home I won't be able to sleep because it will be too late I'll leave the gate unlocked When they are ready, they can walk right in All this looking for sheep wears me out Hey look, it is five O'clock again. . .

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
