Sleep

Sleep:
A necessity for healthy living
but an inconvenience for those
who want to enjoy
every
minute
of life.

Napping:
pleasurable if napping with another.
But to nap alone
for napping's sake
seems
wasteful
to me.

Dreaming
delightful images for the visionary
and predictions for the future
but why dream
when
action
is needed.

I will not...

...sleep
my life away when in waking hours
my hands might build and create and fulfill
those dreams of mine
before
night
comes again.
