MORNING GOLD In the midst of morning, emptying mug; and time’s gold needs to be spent - I yell loudly “Get up!” The quill wants to repent its movement through the hourglass; and I have to shatter the sandman’s dreams.

Superb poem, Kim. Late night poets can well relate to shattered sleep by a quill scribling after midnight. Many congratulations! Brian

If thoughts are awake, it's okay to "shatter the sandman’s dreams," so you can scribble them down. He'll understand. :) Congratulations Kim, on Poem of the Day. Many wonderful blessings to you. :) Hugs, Brandy

Hi Kim, Congratulations on this very well penned POTD. I loved the line "the quill wants to repent it's movement through the hourglass", great metaphor. Exceptional poem. The bar keeps going up here.
