You can call me Ernestine

What do Hemingway and I have in common...


Poem Artwork

I went to his estate
I saw his cats' descendants
I filled up with the vibe
Of his writer's reflections
But when I learned that he
Got up at four not three
I knew we were like one
Because I too get up
Before the sun

I get up at three or so and usually write a poem. But not for the past week. I don't stay up I just go back to bed and get up at 7:30AM.

Do you really get up that early?
6:00 am is good for me..
I use to get up at 5:00 am
when younger...
I'm allergic to cats..
Do you need to know my life story?
Hee, hee, oh yeah, I'm no Hemingway, but
I do have a hemi? Would that be enough?
Love your little writes cuzz..

Ernestine,
There is alot to be said about comparisons with the known, but so much left to be learned about similarities of the unknown!
I enjoyed this!
Love and Peace~
