Notes About The Poem

Morning thoughts I had to get down. Always have a wonderful day

As I Lay In Bed This Morning

As I Lay in Bed This Morning

As I lay in bed this morning
Thoughts of the day ran through my head
Opened my eyes and saw the light
Through the shades and I was glad

Brain got my arms and legs to move
Said put your feet down on the floor
It's time that you got out of bed
And stuck your head outside the door

Today will be the best of days
No matter what the weather cast
It will only help determine
Which of your chores to do at last

Right then another part of me
Stopped that thought, and just in time,
Said you know that he's a poet
First of all must write some rhyme

So as not to disappoint me
I came and sat, began to write
I penned this poem for you to read
And placed it right here for your sight

Hope you enjoyed all you have read
Hope is a good part of our day
Hope all the best for you and yours 
As we continue work or play

A huge dose of sweet, uniquely delivered and very much enjoyed by me! All the hope you have for others, is my hope for you. Keep putting those feet on the floor and a pen in your creative hand - write on ... CayCay

wow! CayCay, I feel undeserving of such compliments. I always write to try to make others relate. It appears I have done it this time for you and you're enough. I always appreciate when you visit. Thank you.
