My Morning Routine

5:30 am...I hit the snooze To turn off the obnoxious sound All I do is delay The morning melee As the sound rolls back around Quarter till six I remove all the sticks From my eyes also known as sleep My feet hit the floor As mutts scratch on my door A reminder of what's to be My four furry friends at once all descend As I open my bedroom door I make my way through The mine field I knew My dogs strategically placed out the night before I open the back as they all attack Their imaginary foe Like a bunch of banshees They let out their wild screams If I can't sleep why should my neighbors next door As I stand in the dark with one last high pitched bark Contemplating the sanity I lack We go back inside A slight tear in my eye To get ready for work where it is I go to relax
