Wide Awake Now

My impetuous pirate self-jumps up to play I snarl and yell at her to just go away She laughs as I hide my hazel eyes from her sight Her faerie soul knows my heart with all of her might I try to re-capture my delicious dream so dear But she settles on my stomach and giggles in my ear I guess we are writing poetry, I say, with a laugh She shakes her head, and snorts prettily like a giraffe Wide awake now with nothing pressing or imperative to do I jump out of bed and make a swift and sure race to the loo My pirate heart laughs at my frowny face in the mirror Glad she has have gotten up, my imagination in gear
