On this third Thursday of July, I am going in with Bonny and others to share some poetry. I don't always join in, but thought of this poem since last night was a bit of a restless one.
3:00 AM
Only my hand
is asleep
but it’s a start
From Musical Tables by Billy Collins. I just love his short poems!
Enjoy your Thursday!!
I love it and can relate!
ReplyDeleteThis is perfect and I can certainly relate! Thanks to you and Billy Collins!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I can relate a lot!
ReplyDeleteI had the most miserable night last night myself and my hands DO fall asleep before I do anymore especially if I try to scrunch them under the pillow. I was just thinking about how annoying that is.
ReplyDeleteBrilliance that only Billy Collins can deliver! Thanks for sharing this (said every person ever awake at 3AM! LOL)
ReplyDeleteThis describes my night last night - Fred & George in the camper with us might not be the best decision I've ever made! LOL
ReplyDeletetoo funny!! Short and sweet and relatable.
ReplyDeleteI think I know just how Billy Collins feels. Some nights sleep eludes.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, that is SO relatable!! (Catching up w/your blog this morning!)
