Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise. ~ Benjamin Franklin

Monday morning is here again.
How did arrive so soon?
If I had my way I would stay in bed
at least until 11:00 or noon!

I have become the queen of snooze,
hitting that button a time or two.
Just a few more minutes is all I need
then I’ll be as good as new.

Remembering I didn’t pack a lunch
sends my head back under the sheet.
Getting ready and off to school on time
will certainly be a feat!

But once I am there and behind my desk
I know that I’m in the right place.
You’ll never see the queen of snooze again
No, not even a trace.

Trying to post a few more poems in honor or National Poetry Month.  Do you have a poem to share with me?
