Before I fall asleep
Just like a wean
I count sheep jumping over the fence
I laugh because some have no fur
Cause I am under a blanket made from a sheep’s wooly coat
Peaceful grass grazing animals
Until a collie barks the tame fauna’s into an enclosure
In my imagination the sheep have personality and swagger
They wear night googles and practical sports hoofs for jumping
One sheep is an olympian, never guess which event?
Yes, the high jump
Eventually I sleep and recharge
Then I wake up, I say
“enjoy today”
When night falls, I call on the sheep and a collie
Before I fall asleep
