Poetry Friday: Capturing my morning

/ Jen Driggers

Day 8 ~ March SOLSC

It’s Poetry Friday!  Visit No Water River to learn about Poetry Friday and Catherine at Reading to the Core for the Poetry Round Up.

This 6 word memoir kind of poem is inspired by Christine’s Daffodil poem I read this morning (while trying to get myself awake and moving!)

This Morning…

Alarm sounds and one eye opens

Reach over and hit the snooze

Just five more minutes, I say

I roll over, five minutes gone

Slowly, slowly, slowly, I sit up

Into the kitchen, pour the coffee

Lift the mug, breathe it in

The hot deliciousness brings a smile

That first sip is pure joy

Ok Friday, I’m ready for you!

  3. I love this poem and did not know about Poetry Friday. I understood exactly how you felt on this Friday morning. Thanks to your link, I am going to read about Poetry Friday today. Perhaps I will give it a try for today’s Slice. Thanks, again.
