Seeking Wisdom

in #poem6 years ago

As I lay me down to sleep,
the thoughts I have while counting sheep,
makes me feel that I've gone deep.
What sort of wisdom can I reap
from my thoughts while counting sheep?

And my dreams while fast asleep?
Sometimes scary, and sometimes sweet.
They often seem real but incomplete.
For some, I'd welcome a repeat!
Do dreams even hold the wisdom I seek?

I keep in mind the wisdom I seek,
while having discussions with people I meet,
during the time I'm not asleep.
Sometimes I feel I'm talking to sheep!
My search for wisdom looks really bleak.
