Waiting For a Coffee

I look at my watch and sigh Want the time to go quickly by Want to get up out of my bed Tired of lying here instead Been awake since half past three Played some games had a read Wishing i was at home To the kitchen i would roam Kettle on, coffee made Maybe some toast and marmalade Paper and pen at the ready Another poem to write today? Instead  am visiting, so i stay In my bedroom more games to play Listening for the rattle of a cup Thats the signal to get up. I smile and say "good morning all" Did  i hear my name you call Was waiting for the "breakfast "shout Then I will dress and go out To the shops. I must go Buy something to halt the thirst Of early morning wake ups  A bedside kettle tray is first Then something nice that they collect Some pottery will do The name i know they particularly like Is anything by Lladro So back i go with presents wrapped To where I love to stay They loved the  Lladro Myself the breakfast tray
