Short Morning Person Poems

Slept in today a rare occurrence
A morning person usually is my preference
Six thirty it is for me
Nine a.m. people worried
But here I am full of poop and exuberance...

My sense of humor was laying under the French toast
Looking forlorn and angry
I dared not speak to it.
It is less of a morning person than I am.
I did not acknowledge that I had seen it
or even find it at all….
Until we both had three cups of coffee
and a bucket of warm sweet syrup on that French toast....

I have never been a morning person.
Painting by moonlight’s ecstasy,
fantasies become realities within the
moon’s ethereal glow.
A whispering pen bleeds golden hues
upon a parchment stage to set the scene.
A brush’s river overflows onto canvas
in flavors of cherry red and
tangerine orange...
inside I bloom.

I'm not a morning person anymore.
The sun shines its light on all of my problems.
They won't go away. 
My world is not just rain, it's a torrential downpour. 
The one thing that I crave just walked out the door.
I'm surrounded by all my demons.
No matter where I go.
I've moved seven times.
They always find new ways to make themselves known. 
They are always there.
Haunting me....

Why in the HELL can I not get up in the morning?
and why would anyone want to?
put aside the dramatic sunrise
and what do you have?

A headache from too much fun
20 minutes to get ready for work
oh, and then there's WORK
and Republicans driving 40 in a 65

You ever notice how slow republicans drive?

I am not a morning person
I like tacos at 3am
the quiet is mine 
the sky much more interesting

You ever notice how much better you look at nite?...

Yes I’m really trying hard to be a morning person
No matter the alarms I set it still isn’t working

I haven’t given up because I’m quite determined
So I currently set myself up with a 2 AM curfew 

Let’s see how it goes
I’m sure it will soon show

If I can wake up at this rate
Or will I still be late

I want to be up to see the sun rise
‘Cause that day I managed it was pretty fine

Not to worry because with everything else
All of us included are works in progress...
