Morning Darkness - Aabb
Alarm goes off, my sleep it breaks
The dogs are awake
The house is cold
My bones creek as I am old
Another morning up to early
My eyes are still blurry
Darkness still upon us
Take a few minutes to adjust
The wind is cold as it blows
Another morning of extreme lows
As I quickly open the door
As the dogs race across the floor
Dogs please come in
Calling again and again
Stubborn they will be
As they continue to ignore me
Quickly the food is served
Their hunger is finally curved
The water is all around
They look for scraps to be found
Too early for coffee
The husband is up and groggy
Maybe some tea
A good breakfast is the key
Off to work he goes
Back to sleep I will go
The dogs are sleeping on their bed
As I rest my tired head
