Annie's better than Ambien

Annie's always calm and cheerful,

Speaks no ill of friend or foe,

Always prudent and productive,

Meets temptation with a no.

Never gossips, never grumbles,

Eats fresh fruit instead of cake.

Spend an afternoon with Annie —

See how long you stay awake.

— “An Afternoon With Annie,’’ by Felicia Nimue Ackerman
