Three In The Morning
Three In The Morning
I heard the clock chime as I rolled out of bed.
There's a catch in my back and an ache in my head.
The silvery light of the moon that I see,
Peeping through curtains seems to mock lonely me.
It's early. Too early to rise for the day!
But I couldn't quite stand lying lonely that way.
Maybe I'll straighten a closet, or cook,
Work on a project, or read a good book.
Maybe I'll go back to bed where I'll sleep
After I write out the demons I keep.
Maybe I'll find that you're wide awake too,
Looking for me as I dream, Love, of you.
Life is too short to be wasting these minutes.
I don't like to think that you might not be in it.
I hear your soft moans from the room down the hall.
The pain gets so bad in your sleep then you call.
What in the world do I do for relief?
Three in the morning. I sit here in grief.
Dear Jess
How many time have I not jumped out of bed at the same time, trying to make use of every living moment!
It is such a lovely poem! The picture is magnificent – once again arranged in the superb style of a true artist!
I say it again - this is what poetry is all about – the enchantment of poetry, music and a beautiful picture combined!
I masterful piece!
Greeting from afar
