not wanting to get up in the morning


Poem Artwork

 

                                                    

Sweet slumber, Soft pillow

Loud obnoxious noise!

Wake up, slam fist on the

Black offensive box.

Turn off the awful din

Open both eyes

Huge red numbers on the

Hideous thing, flash and

Stare cruelly back.

Forbids slumber

As it demands:

Time to face the day

Loud din goes off again

Tired of hearing the noise

Ugly black box

Angrily thrown on the floor

Sweet slumber, soft pillow….

Indeed! I can relate, Mary. Alarm clocks are the bane of modern society. Love and best wishes,

LOL I have done this time and again, when I was younger and didn't want to get up, even on a work day. LOL. You have written a very lovely, humorous poem that we can all identify with. Thank you for sharing.

May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & (((((((((MANY WONDERFUL HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), Den sister, Barbie

Been there done that my friend! I think we've all either thrown our friend the alarm clock off the nightstand or felt like it! Enjoyed this much! Cleverly written with humor that we all need! Laughing is good for the soul!
Blessings,
Joyce B.

Hi Mary, glad you found my site so now I have the pleasure of finding yours! My morning battle with the alarm clock has been eased somewhat with my son now taking my daughter to school! I bribed him for that few extra minutes slumbering in my pillow! Excellent and funny poem. Well Done! Deborah
