Somnolence

So Sleepy Slumberous
My weary droopy eye
Both eyes, didymus oculus
Or is that oculi?

I won’t be gone too long
Just a lee-tle shut-eye
For the split of the splat
In the sweet by and bye.

Have you been to the zoo?
I think it is the rain
Or played a zither?
On my window pane?

Mambo Jambo
New Orleans Jumbo
Jumbling Jumpers
Jab me again.
