Sleep is the best. That is a picture of me. My wife snuck in and snapped in on me one morning. Kept right on sleeping.

words. Each stanza have seven words each that may contain rhymes, but that is not a requirement. Both stanzas deal with the same thought in different aspects, and create a picture. Rhyming is optional. The stanzas can have variable number of lines with three/four words or four/three words being the most common. Here I went with three/four, then two/two/three.
