The Sleep of Youth

"In recent years what she missed most about her youth
was sleep,
that ability to fall into a hole of
unconsciousness and land, softly
 and without sensation, at the bottom,
to awake ten hours later rested and 
with skin remarkably uncreased."

Anne Quindlen,
Still Life with Bread Crumbs
