PLEASANT STILLNESS
My boy, so stunningly resistant
This perky child simply refuses to sleep
My own flesh and blood
Adorably defiant
Makes constant nonsensical shrieks
Powered by youth
These resilient rabbits
Bounding, breaking every waking rule
Have elastic will
Perfectly capable and well intended to rule
But every day the same, is well measured
In the end, every child subdued, simply just lies still
My boy, so stunningly resistant

Perfectly capable and well intended to rule
But every day the same, is well measured
In the end, every child subdued, simply just lies still
