My Alarm Clock

I have two alarm clocks
One electric
Which I do not use
Only to tell time
Then-there is Sparkles

Yes Sparkles
She wakes me gently
With nudges and kisses
Early in the morn
Until I awake

She wants her breakfast
n the early morn
When tummy is full
then she is content
Going back to sleep
