An Exchange of Letters

Today’s NaPoWriMo prompt is to write a poem containing a letter and a response. The PAD Challenge prompt is a prime number poem.

Dear Sandman,
This is to extend
an open invitation
to come by tonight
and bring me a dream
I haven’t seen you
in such a long time
I am exhausted
please come

I’m afraid
I will have to pass
with the days getting longer
and the sand shortage
I have found myself stretched thin
please accept this missive
as a call to non-action
with my permission
to nap
