Simply took a nap

Simply took a nap

A Poem by Linda alexander

I simply took a nap as all things are overwhelming to my poor soul
I simply shut my eyes to those counting on me to save serenity
I slept to wake up with functioning brain and supple heart
Yes I am proud to say no to some as I said yes to plenty

If you think of me as selfish be my guest please
If you think of me as ignorant you are most welcome
I love you  at times more than myself which I am terrified
I hope this nap may bring most practical answers to some questions
