Slumber

I lay in bed all day
Not a single care came my way

For 18 hours, I rested in bed
On the soft pillow was my head

I had strange dreams all night
Some of them caused a fright

At 3am – the Witching Hour
I faced Satan’s power

I was not afraid at all
“The Lord rebuke you!” was my call

I finally woke up
I was a tired pup

I had a 6-hour day
Then I was back asleep without delay
