Sleep eludes when the mind is not at ease.
Eyes yearn to trap it even if it is for a fleeting moment.
Mother's lap (dad's too) is one place where we all found sleep effortlessly. Even when it was difficult, there were tender hands which lulled us into a gentle sleep. I miss the magic of those hands. I wonder, if I'll find sleep there again coz I know I'll worry about the well-being of those weary hands even as they would stroke me gently, coaxing me to sleep.

A mother's (or father's lap) is the safest haven that we can seek on this earth, or even in heaven too.
It's something worth missing till we get it :)
