Poem number 1

It's just gone midnight so technically this is now the 1st April, the big day is here.....
I know I should be in bed and fast asleep by now like any normal person, but normal is something Im not!!
For the past 13 years I have lived with narcolepsy, a condition which affects my sleep /wake pattern so I am quite often awake at stupid times ( like now). It is during these times that I  often find myself jotting down ideas or writing poems....

And that brings me to this. My first offering.

I don't know why I do these things,
I must be off my head!
I sit here writing poems,
When I should be off to bed.

30 poems in 30 days,
A challenge yes I know.
Tomorrow morn is April first,
The start.....so here I go.

I present to you my first,
A poem of simple rhyme.
Please bear with my as I write
They will improve with time.

I hope you like my ditty
There's many more to write.
But now I'll end with this last verse
And bid you all good night.

So there it is. The first of my 30 poems. Only 29 more to go!!  Its very rough and it's very late as I write it so please forgive me if it seems overly simple....
