Poem: "A Goodnight Poem"

I’m in bed by 10 again
I’m in bed by 10. 
For what it’s worth 
I’m in my bed
By 10 p.m. again. 

I’ll check this little gadget thing
In my bed at 10.
I’ll scan my room for things to do
Morning when I rise.

I’ll close the light 
And snuggle up
Then look up to the skies
And say goodnight to God at 10
And slowly close my eyes. 

And 10 will turn to 12, then 1
And 1 will turn to 4
And people needing things from me
Will have to wait some more.

Cause I’m in bed and that’s my right
10’s the time for me
To close my eyes and fall away
Gently into sleep.
