Sleep
comes easily
at times
Who wants to
be
awake
24/7 with
this
Covid
thing?
Ah
to dream
and alas
when
I
did
there it was
Oh
my
God!
The ball park!
I swear to you
it was shimmering
I am not kidding!
The organ played
the crowd rose
the players
ran
onto the field
It was
it is
baseball!
We’re back!
It’s back!
“Honey,
wake up,
you’re yelling…”
“What
what
what now?”
My wife woke me
She did not know
I tried to explain to her
She said
(in a comforting tone)
“It’s going to be ok honey
in time
you’ll see
and in reality
not
in
a
dream…”
I did not fall back to asleep
for
quite
awhile
Maybe
(hard to believe
but maybe)
this is a way of
just reminding
us
not to take any thing
ever
at
all
for granted
Like
playing
baseball
or
going to a game
or
being
alive
or
being
a
kid
who dreams
