Wakin' Thoughts Poem by Richard D Remler

........


Waking up is not so bad
When you've had the kind
Of night I've had.
My brain still has
That restless hum
Reviewing every 'thing'
I've done.

Snipping at those
Silly things
A night of long
Reflection brings.
Reminding me in
Its nagging way
How poorly managed
Was my day.

'If only you'd performed
This one task right,
You'd surely have
Slept well last night.
But your idle
Clumsiness and err
Caused more than one
Disaster there.'

Oh, I'm sure my sleeping
Thoughts are right.
For they made their
Feelings clear last night.
A fair tad condescending, aye,
But I kind of did mess up my day.

My nerves, they're on
Their final tweak,
And I fear will not
Survive the week.
So, considering
The night I've had,
Waking up is not so bad.
