I am writing to contend with a sleepless night,
A pain more bothersome than a deep, sharp bite.
And I know there are supposed to be remedies out there,
Been tried again and again I may silently declare.
Everyone will want to be a doctor right now,
Sound advice tends to benefit little and not endow.
To count sheep, or chant mantras, is the likely technique,
I think prayers from others would be really unique.
I was driven today to Cherry Beach for a swim,
To relax nerves and bring some calm within
