The last four lines are enough. You have rightly hit it. We can also experience the sleep.

A precious little poem, inspired methinks by old nursery rhymes. Love the rhythm, the simplicity of the language and the beat of the piece. Yes, a lovely children's poem for grownups to enjoy. (or vice versa if you like?) love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Several thngs jumped out at me while reading this entertaining and extremely well written poem, Fay. First, I noticed how tersely it was written, using a minimum of words to convey such vivid impressions. I also noted how smoothly it was written and that every word flowed into the next word perfectly. I was quickly aware of how accurate and expressive your words were as well. All of this points to the fact that you are a most talented and experienced poet and certainly a great pleasure to read. Carl.
