INSOMNIA

A house of sleepers, I alone unblest

Am still awake and empty vigil keep:

When those who share Life’s day with me find rest,

Oh, let me not be last to fall, asleep.

Anna Reeve Aldrich.

She did “fall asleep” at the early age of twenty-six in June, 1892.

The world is full of willing people: some willing to work, and the rest willing to let them.
