A afternoon nap

A bit tired, I need to stop,

sun is warm, I need to tap,

love for a moment, in nature's lap,

it's my treasured, an afternoon nap. 


Eyelids gets heavy, closing eyes,

relaxing muscles, losing its strength,

I want to rest, it's not a crime,

falling into slumber, at daytime. 


In the park, sitting on the bench

might make me dirty, or get drenched, 

so, I went inside, to my comfy bed,

falling into its soft embrace instead. 


Deeper and deeper, I kept sinking,

seconds & minutes, clock is ticking,

drop by drop, the plink of faucets,

all fading, into some distant noises. 


And I lost counts, duration of time,

it was evening, when I open eyes,

still feeling groggy, foggy in mind,

being disoriented, of my surroundings. 


It's take moments, before I realized,

feeling refreshed, fully awakened, 

reminding myself, not to fell in this trap,

letting myself loose, into an afternoon nap... 


For, sweet night, might get jealous,

taking away, my precious sleep!!
