Ah… the trials of no sleep because of a new born… I remember that well.
One doesn’t sleep well when they are teens either! 😉
But we manage, we are the corks that rise to the surface bobbing for both want and need 🙂

I remember those days, Chelsea. My oldest son didn’t sleep through the night until he was 9 and sometimes woke me up 10 times in a night. Now that I think about, why on earth did I have a second [grin]?

I like the way you experiment with your poetry: the forms are never the same. Other blogs have poem after poem that look the same. I like variety. I like poets who shake it up a bit, take chances.

I’ve decided I use sleep as a numbing tactic -you know, when kids aren’t naturally involved.
