all because you kissed me goodnight.

Here's my most favorite poem of all time. Sarah Rolstan is a genius in-love.

I climbed the door and opened the stairs
Said my pyjamas and put on my prayers.
I turned off the bed and crawled into the light
All because you kissed me goodnight.

Next morning I woke and scrambled the shoes
Polished my egg and toasted the news.
I couldn't tell my left from right
All because you kissed me goodnight.

That evening, at last, I felt normal again.

So I picked up my mother and called the phone.
So I spoke to the puppy and threw dad a bone
Even at midnight the sun was still bright
All because you kissed me goodnight.
