Caren Krutsinger Poet Rhyme

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

Michelle Faulkner July 10, 2018 at 2:57 PM So clever to describe your imagination as a playful spirit, sometimes that's how I feel too! Caren Krutsinger July 11, 2018 at 8:31 AM Thank you Michelle. I feel her so proudly and loudly sometimes!
