Saturday Morning Poem by LeeAnn Azzopardi

Saturday Morning

Rating: 5.0


Eating a cold bagel with tons of margarine
I didn't dare to toast it because of the noise
I sat down and ate while listening to poetry
My dog continued to beg a morsel of the bagel
But I refused to give him
Until his eyes melted my soul
Then, I gave him some
I wanted to make coffee
But once more the reason was noise
As my eyes became heavy
My desire to write was strong
Struggling to keep my eyes open
I type my desire onto the page
And now, I want to sleep
For I cannot hold any longer
Though, I cannot go back to sleep

Great poem, LeeAnn. Fascinated with the repetition of 'noise'...leaving the reader wondering: Is it outside or inner noise? I suspect that it was both.

Morning's morsels majestic are moments to be shared with a drooling Cooper. Nice one LeeAnn.
