A little past dawn
light invites itself
streaming through
the window
Feeling the stare
my eyes open
only to realize
night has bid farewell
Dreading
getting out of bed
and the biting cold
when toes
touch the floor
I pull the covers
over my head
Bodies warm
and cozy, a duet
all snuggly
lying next
to my hubby
Daybreak can wait
I’m not willing
to greet
the chilling
hour
just yet

Sorry for another oldie, but thanks for reading again,
if you’ve already seen this. I’ve been busy
working on another project and haven’t had
time to write. Wishing you all a wonderful
evening or day, wherever you may be. ♥

Love it. Snug as a bug in a rug… 🙂
Thanks, my friend! 🙂 xoxo
New to me too here in Ireland. Lovely piece.
I’m glad you’re reading for the first time and thank you so much! Ireland sounds lovely. It’s on my bucket list! 🙂
How sweet! Best place to be that time of morning! 😀
Thanks, Suzy, and yep, it is! 🙂 xx
I have seen this one before, and it’s just a brilliant now as it was then. 🙂
Aww..thanks, Tim, that’s very sweet of you and it’s also good to see you! I’ve been absent, too, off and on! It’s so hard to keep up, but I appreciate your visit. I’ll be over your way soon! 🙂
Haha! It’s good to see you too! And no worries. I know how crazy life can get.
Thanks, Tim! Take care and have a great weekend! I’m heading over your way now! 🙂
lovely tone painting — a water-color poem.
Thank you very much! I appreciate your lovely comment on this oldie! 🙂
You captured exactly what we all feel at that hour. =)
Thanks so much for your lovely comment! Have a wonderful weekend! 🙂
What a lovely poem! It’s brand new to me! 😀
Thanks very much, Cha, and I’m glad this was a first for you to read, too! Have a wonderful day, my friend!
Sweet and warm. 🙂
Thanks so much, Nandini! Have a wonderful Sunday! xx
Lovely, Lauren! ♥
Sweet! Old or new, your work is beautiful. No apologies for loveliness of any kind. 🙂
xoxo!

Aww..Kathryn, you made my day! Thanks for the encouragement and lovely words! Hugs and love to you! Have a great weekend! xo
And yet another wonderful attribute that husbands can have (keeping you warm in the chill morning air)! A lovely poem. Have you every noticed that poems don’t really age, I mean, not really. I can read a sonnet of Shakespeare’s, or a poem from Frost, and they each seem just as fresh as if they were just written. A lovely thing about poems indeed, just like yours, Lauren! 🙂 xx
What a beautiful thing to say, Penny, and there is truth in your words when it comes to Shakespeare, but I always have a little self doubt when it comes to mine. 🙂 Thank you, though! ♥
Oh for goodness sakes Lauren, your poetry is beautiful! Leave no room for self-doubt my friend, you do have talent! 🙂 xx
Haha, I feel like I’ve just been “scolded!” 🙂 Okay, okay, thanks, my wonderful friend! Well, I have awesome, talented friends here that inspire and I learn from, too. Seriously, in the 2 years I’ve been sharing my poetry on my blog, I’ve learned a lot…things I never knew before. So, not only has it been fun, but a learning and growing experience for me. Hugs!
Hugs to you too, my friend, we all learn everyday, I think being a blogger ramps up the learning curve a little more too! 🙂
