I Dared Not Speak To It

My sense of humor was laying under the French toast
Looking forlorn and angry
I dared not speak to it.
It is less of a morning person than I am.
I did not acknowledge that I had seen it
or even find it at all….
Until we both had three cups of coffee
and a bucket of warm sweet syrup on that French toast.

My humor needs to be coaxed out with coffee and donuts (with sprinkles!)

Seriously if it was not for sugar I would have no diet at all.
