No Plagiarism!epW65vDjAKfnEbKDWgyUposted on PＥNAＮＡ

As you glide into soft, safe, sleep,

What strange force through you seeps?

710Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufidx4hJ6r

When you drift into the unknown,

What silent, strong power makes it so?

710Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDavobRtKR

For once in the dark, daring, dead of night,

A spirited, strange old man came to my sight.

710Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmNy2R6hnk

His soft, silver beard was like the glowing moon,

He hummed a happy, soaring, sleepy tune.

710Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoEZJIzaq4

His robe was golden and glided as he hobbled,

Kindly he looked at me as he wobbled.

710Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HSu58oljw

From his pocket he pulled strange dust,

From his faithful, face I new him I could trust.

710Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2hqCsbKq0

 In he breathed a sharp, sore wheeze,

And blew the dust to magicly make me sleep.

710Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdsZGaY9N7

Everything went according to plan,

For this was the sleepy, sand man.
