what is it about sleep

that seems so appealing?
when it robs us of consciousness?
when we don't feel so well, and we have so very much to do and yet just a little nap sounds like a much better idea?
when it eludes us?
when we roll over to turn off the alarm clock and beg for just five minutes more?
and sometimes we just can't have any at all, and we lie in the dark, feeling the minutes crawl by, and all we want in the whole wide world, is just that little bit of
sleep?
