6 am and all is not well
Exhausted from lack of sleep
Just 5 more minutes
One tap of the snooze button
I know it will make a difference
Shrill sounds blaring
My heart racing in surprise
That noise again
Beckons for open eyes
I begrudgingly comply
Opening the bathroom door
She greets me with warmth and light
Colors too magnificent to describe
The view from my window
The sunrise that brings me to life
Alarm clock...Sunrise...Alarm clock...Sunrise...Alarm Clo-Oh forget the electronic rooster! Body cooperates more naturally with the sun.
Arise and shine on Sis,
Peace,
