i can relate — my husband sleeps deep like yours but fortunately his snores stop when i elbow him into turning over!

i on the other hand do not sleep well and suffer from night terrors hence my blog has many poems and posts about sleep!

I’ve added my senryu. Sleep deprivation is a weapon of baby warfare.

I know this feeling well! I’m plagued with insomnia, why is it these wonderful ideas rattle around my head when it is time to sleep? And I had to laugh -

“just can’t help getting mad,
Cuz his snores can be heard in Brazil.”

My husband does the same thing!

Great limerick! And the haiku is very thoughtful. I like the way you used the prompts from the various sites.

I’ve been sleepless for
Two evenings in a row now
I need to be employed!
