Down to the Doldrums

A yawn starts my journey,
My eyes slowly close,
My mind begins to drift away,
That’s how the beginning goes.
Then I’m floating down the lazy river,
My brain and soul washed clean,
Surrounded by cool imagination,
Basking in it’s streams.
Then the river shallows,
the river ends it’s run.
So I ride the dreaming train
Down into the Doldrums.
The Doldrums! Where the dreams all play!!
All is sleepy, all at rest.
This snoozing plain is definitely
The land that I love best.
A pleasant dream then comes to me
I say “ I’ll remember that!”
But the awake! A voice says to me
“Where is your homework at?”
