Six a.m.
Alarm goes off
Hit snooze
And again
And again

Brush teeth
Wash face
Dress to impress
Black coffee
Out the door

I-75
Traffic Jam
Twenty Minutes
Rush in
Unnoticed

Work
Work
Work
Lunch
Work

Drive home
Family Dinner
Say grace
How’s your day?
It was good

T.V. on
Kids asleep
Goodnight dear
Off to bed
Six a.m.
