While My Beloved Sleeps

I am the watcher of the phone,

the catcher of the beeps.

I guard the door and knocks abhor

while my beloved sleeps.

In his recliner, he reclines,

and I prolong his doze,

For all the while he power naps,

I watch the cooking shows.

When he awakens, he will find

that slumber tooks its toll.

His weariness and slothfulness,

Lost him the remote control.
