I woke up with a nervous start,<\/span><\/p>\n

Or was it an end?<\/span><\/p>\n

It tripped my heart!<\/span><\/p>\n

The earth we knew had been replace.<\/span><\/p>\n

Or, where we lived had been erased.<\/span><\/p>\n

Two suns were shining in the sky.<\/span><\/p>\n

Five moons were circling, way up high.<\/span><\/p>\n

It really was a different sight,<\/span><\/p>\n

Even so it seemed alright.<\/span><\/p>\n

I had a lot of work to do,<\/span><\/p>\n

Five moons, two suns, no sleep for you!<\/span><\/p>\n

My irritation peaked of course,<\/span><\/p>\n

My smile, I had to really force.<\/span><\/p>\n

A sleepless world made stress more keen,<\/span><\/p>\n

Kind was gone, replaced with mean.<\/span><\/p>\n

And as the days went rolling by,<\/span><\/p>\n

Five wars broke out, an all time high.<\/span><\/p>\n

They fought to colonize each moon.<\/span><\/p>\n

This world became a mess too soon.<\/span><\/p>\n

And when at last I did find sleep,<\/span><\/p>\n

My dreams had nowhere safe to creep.<\/span><\/p>\n

So you can understand my plight,<\/span><\/p>\n

How was I to make this right?<\/span><\/p>\n

I made a call to God on high,<\/span><\/p>\n

This is not right, make it a lie!<\/span><\/p>\n

He heard me and I woke again,<\/span><\/p>\n

Back on the earth I was born in.<\/span><\/p>\n

I called back God to say all\u2019s well<\/span><\/p>\n

I said that other world was hell.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you for keeping life this way,<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ll do my best to make it stay.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
