Don’t wake me up
Before six a.m.
Gimme my coffee
Let me be
Let the sunlight dim
 
I’m not quite awake
Until three p.m.
There’s a sleepy in my eye
So don’t even try
To get me out of R.E.M.

These challenges are fun! You acquited yourself well. Easier than a 10 though eh?
Hiralarious gave me the exact same line. Check out my response, if you dare.

Oh, I dare!! I'm the kind of person you really don't want to dare!! LOL. I'll check yours out, too.

MA

Well, okay, I like your poem 'even though' it is totally opposite from me!! LOL I am up by 5 am EVERY morning. ALways have been a morning person. But I do like my coffee!

Clever, cute and a fun read!.....Jerry

Jerry, I'm not up before 6am. You really don't want to know me at 5 am..... It's not good. In high school, I was in marching band, (...and one time, at band camp...., lol) and we had to be on the field AT 5:45 am. The motto was, "If you're on time, you're late!" So, I've learned to get up when necessary, but don't be surprised if I get a bit pissy!

Even now, my 6 year old is up a the butt-crack of dawn. 6 am on a Saturday?? Argh! So, I'll get up, drink my coffee and just be a zombie till later in the day!

Anyway, Jerry, thanks for the comment!

MA

hahahhahhha SO Funny!!!!!!

you should post a picture of yourself at 3 am LOL!!!!

There's me too early in the morning....


Good for you for qutting the coffee. Do you still get the headaches? I can't seem to quit just yet. It's my one vice I just can't seem to get rid of.
So glad you enjoyed the poem. Thanks Katie, as always, for finding my poetry.

MA

Well, I think my insomnia is starting back up again. I'm in bed between 2 and 3, and I have to be up by 6 am

So, even without insomnia, I'm pretty rough around the edges first thing in the morning.
So glad you enjoyed the poem.

MA

Hello,
i guess this poem describes us insomniacs well, but i win the contest cuz i cant sleep till 4 or 5 am and am wide awake by 9, beat that lol. You met the challenge head on, good for you.

Thanks! Glad you enjoy it. You're talking to a person who has to have the 8-10 hours of sleep each night.... You're talking to a person who LOVES naptime!! LOL, anyway. Thanks for the comment.

MA

You combined the line in your poem beautifully and simply. I like it.

MA, I thought this poem was so cute, short and to the point. I'm a morning person as well, Up at 6 AM showered, dressed, with coffee in hand and I'm good to go.
