A Night Worker Awakes

As I slip awake this frosty morn
Heart feeling heavy, I don't know why
Blinking sleepy eyed,a little confused
Bed clothes contorted somewhat awry

Realizing I have more nights off work
Warms my heart with a smile debuting 
Sleep leaves the eyes of my disguise
Of a man that knows just what he's doing 

I'm greeted warmly by my sweet wife
Who hands me coffee she made for me
This is the best way to start the day
With Love and coffee don't you agree?
