Random Poem

In the east the sun rises

and brightens up the day.

I used to curl under covers

and want to sleep the morning away.

10 o'clock was the perfect time

to rise up from my bed.

But now I sleep in until 8

for there's things to do instead.

I like to read a novel

sitting in a reclining chair.

My favorite days are spent in slow motion

when I have to go nowhere. 

I really need a day off

so tomorrow is good timing.

Reading this, I have decided

I need to work on my rhyming.

It's been a while, I think,

probably a few years in the past

since I've had an instructor

and been in a writing class.
