Just a minute! Coming!

                                                    As the sun rises...

Yes! I'll get the kids dressed.

                                                    As the sun  rises....

Yes Honey! I'll  polish their shoes and make breakfast.

                                                   As the sun  rises reaches midmorning...

Yes Honey! Give me a minute! I'll mow the lawns!

                                                    At midday the sun above rises.....

Yes Dear! Just a minute! Thanks for making lunch!

                                                    As the sun rises drops......

Yes! I'm getting dinner on in a minute!

                                                    As the sun rises sunsets.....

Yes Babe! I'll run their bath soon!

                                                    As the sun moon rises.....

Yes Honey! I won't forget to put the bins out.

I enjoyed this conversational poem between you, your thoughts and your wife... the little interruptions in a writer's life cause us to take our scrambled thoughts sometimes to the bin... I love the form and creativity.

It is often in the middle of those seemingly mundane tasks of life, that we find what live is all about, hey?

This poem has a lot of potential. Something about this just didn't do it for me. I feel like it's missing something . . .

Overall, nice work!
