Breakfast

DING!!! I heard the sound of my alarm bark
YAWN!!! My mouth imitated an exhausted beak 
It was time for me to break the night's fast
So gratified to perceive the awesome aroma of Baked bread and tea
I gallantly walked towards the dinning room without fear
Stretching my body, looking like a bear
When I arrived, I didn't see any food to feast
It was past BREAKFAST! My mouth melting and hungry like a beast
My nose began locating the site of the aroma without rest
It was like eating that food was my morning fate
As the smell grew intense, I thought I was near for my sake
Finally, I arrived at the stop! On a trash can, it sat
Should I feast on it? My cells scared on the decision I was willing to take
