Ronovan’s Haiku Challenge (4/6/20)

300 Consecutive Inspirations!

“The Sandman is a traditional character in many children’s stories and books. In Scandinavian folklore, he is said to sprinkle sand or dust on or into the eyes of children at night to bring on sleep and dreams. The grit or “sleep” (rheum) in one’s eyes upon waking is the supposed result of the Sandman’s work the previous night.”  -Wikipedia

“Mr. Sandman bring me a dream
Make him the cutest that I’ve ever seen
Give him two lips like roses and clover
Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over”
