Birthing poetry

Early morning writing before work starts

A coffee cup that warms the hand
a pooch across his lap
the tick and tock of passing time
a single digit tap
that births the letters, words and verse
as poetry is born
whilst all sleep soundly in their beds
on an early summer morn'.

Author's Note

A quickie :)

fun, cute, sweet...
all of the above!

Nicely done, friend.

Thank you kindly

You're welcome, friend!

Your words are as near mantra as can be. They're like a song of praise, a dance of joy, they create smiles and wipe away tears, Gee. The birth of dawn is now far brighter than was, thank you!

[Gee]

Again belated thanks EmmaJ

I've done this very sort of thing so many times. It doesn't matter the season. The "delivery" sometimes comes slow and the "labor" can last or move right along. But our children, wouldn't we do anything for them? delightful analogy here, I enjoyed.

[Gee]

Another late thank you, apologies

I, too, write poetry in the early morning. I do everything in the early morning, since it is my favorite time of day. Without the pooch on my lap, unfortuanately. My cat does like to observe, though! I love the expressiveness of this poem. It is clear you enjoy your writing time!

[Gee]

Thank you. I think my muse has upped and left to God only knows where. Perhaps I should try an evening write :)
Hope you are well, apologies for the tardy thank you

It's crazy whenever the muse hits, day or night. Leaving us anxious, and fulfilled.

[Gee]

Indeed. My muse is at present on vacation and assured me has no intention of returning any time soon:)
Thank you Kelly

[Kelly Scheppers]

Lol. I want to know where they got their attitude from!

I am more tea and cats but certainly a one finger tapper, just mostly at night. I couldn't write poems in the morning. I like my sleep too much. An enjoyable quick poem to read.

[Gee]

Thank you.
Seems we are polar oppisites, night, morning, dogs, cats...I have an allergy to cat fur, has me wheezing , coughing and my eyes swell up.so that I look like Marty Feldman( I think)

[Gee]

A poet, who has the itch, the will and the desire to write will find times and ways, to foresee the birth of his, her thoughts, emotions and purposes.
Well done!!!

[Gee]

Thank you Sami
