Ladybug Sunday Morning
Bright light through kitchen window shines Through my darkened mini-blinds Peeping in to start the day But, I refuse and say, "Go 'way!" Later, at the kitchen sink I'm still asleep Can hardly think Wash the dishes All by hand JOYful bubbles Foamy strands Tho' Inviting me from reverie Between the sun beams bright Sat the sisters ladybug Savoring morning's light There, on speckled window panes Along with who-knows-what's remains Sat a pair who dressed the same Oblivious to my plight Peering out to greet the day Beneath their polka dot array Their reverence surely seemed to say "Thank You, Lord for this day." "Thank You for another day." Rosie Lemmon 1998 |
