Dawn and On

Morning sun invades the skies And permeates my sleepy eyes A timer makes the coffee brew While I begin to stir and stew Water from the shower head Invigorates the sleeping dead Towel dried skin and blow dried hair In my clothes and down the stairs Grab a cup and then move on Get the paper from the lawn In the car and on my way Starting off another day Rockman 8/8/2012 For the Francine Roberts contest, "A Couplet Morning"

I really enjoyed the Couplet form and the simple, easy to digest, poetic flow and imagery.
