If You Are Well Rested…

If you are well rested…. By Aboli Mane

circadian rhythm 
awake and arise
serotonin sunshine
if you are well rested
the day begins well 

the body clock has a way
early to bed early to rise
makes a person healthy and wise
current lifestyles do not agree 
with this maxim, unsurprised 

entrainment is a habit 
and habits are hard to set
it takes twenty one days to make
only one day to break 
infinite scrolling; same wavelength 

circadian rhythm 
awake and arise
serotonin sunshine
if you are well rested
the day begins well

In lieu of belated World Sleep Day (March 17), I present a poem adhering to the prompts for Reena’s Xploration Challenge #272.

I have trouble falling asleep just as the next person…social media is often to blame for it. Gone are the days when I could sleep early and wake early…as we grow older we set our own routines be it good or bad.
