Cold Morning, Cool Beginnings

Morning on a winter's day

Cold Morning; Cool Beginnings

 

 

Freezing light peeks through the blinds,

 

promising another day with a voice of wind

 

Weary rain taps on the cringing roof,

 

in a half-hearted drumbeat of misery

 

You groan, reluctantly give into the day,

 

and grumpily leave the warmth of the blankets

 

The unwanted shock as bare feet meet ice-cold linoleum

If you weren't awake before, you are now!

You open the blinds you hide behind,

 

and behold a dispirited world;

 

cold morning; cool beginnings

Ugh. Winter mornings. Try walking barefoot on tiles. I would walk on linoleum anytime. I can relate to this. That need to stay in bed, wrapped up in warm blankets, so nice and toasty...

Yes, I can see where tiles would be worse, but that's why I wrap my feet in cooked meat. But then, walking with a double cheeseburger as shoes doesn't work out very well, especially with ketchup! Oh boy, with jokes (?) like that, I should have stayed in bed this morning!

Jokes like that actually make me laugh because they are so lame! But you're still cool, nonetheless :D

[Michael Stevens]

If it's lame jokes you want, I'm the man to see!

Sometimes, your jokes are lame. But for the most part, you make me laugh :)

I aim to please!
