Early morning but sleep still beckons
Hear the clock ticking off the seconds.
A few more minutes can’t do any harm.
Just reach over and hit the snooze alarm.
Last night’s dream still seems so real.
Now thinking what today will reveal.
The window starting to show the morning sun.
Remembering my list and what must get done.
Somehow the morning to do list will keep.
Pull up the covers, I am going back to sleep.
