We need to understate the bed’s many effects

Its plays an important part in our life most direct

It does what it does and not a single thing more

But everything is does is hard to ignore

Allow to me to name a mere few of its delights

The Most consistent caretaker of one’s life

The first one to greet us with the morning’s rays

The last thing we meet with at the end of our days

What more is there to be said

About our most consistent caretaker the bed

A palace of unparalleled comfort

One that you always come to miss

Whether during a long days work

Or a trip to travel far beyond our known strife

The bed awaits to wrap you a unquestionable bliss

The cushions which support our journey

Whether that means getting sleepful rest

Or if that means getting restful sleep

The cushions and pillows stack as high or as low

In order to make sure are bed is the most comfy place to go

And when the cold days breeze through

Causing us to shake and clatter to our core

And at the moment we don’t think we can take it anymore

But the warm simple embrace of a bed’s covers

Is all one needs to feel the we’re experiencing summers

Within the realms of our highest highs

Or in the pits of our lowest lows

We need no to worry of our foundation

The bed is there right underneath us

To guide us where our mind drifts and goes

It is the birthplace of all our fantasies

When we traveling at night

Between the worlds or waking and sleep

The bed is there to to help us travel the seams

Of one, two, three or many wonderful dreams.

When asked where I might like to go

Whether it is the middle of a bright day’s glow

Or betwixt a terrible night’s windy blow

I would only say the one thing that needs to be said

At any time at all, I would like to go to bed
