Morning Ritual
MORNING RITUAL
There’s a southern expression
When someone’s fixin’ to act
Means getting ready to try
To do this, or to do that.
I’m an old soul fixin’ to,
Then, roll over stay in bed.
No way someone young like you
Knows Morning Routines I dread!
Never been an early bird
Husband drags me out of bed
With sleep machine, sleep deeply
Sometimes wonders if I’m dead.
Stop laughing it’s not funny
I don’t like the fix I’m in
Getting elderly’s wicked
I categorize it as sin!
