woke up in the morning early
woke with a need to write
woke before dawn light
several loads of washing done
hung in early autumn light
to dry in morning afternoon sun
multiple other jobs now done
this is time of afternoon sun
short time out before vacuuming done
woke in the morning early
woke with a need to write
woke but no time to write
the sun was soon up shining
for no particular reason felt like writing
desire to write stirring soon burning
already made the bed in my room
soon three quarters of house will vacuum
while vacuuming poetic thoughts will boom boom boom
by late afternoon will be writing
writing late but still will be writing
need to write writ finally writing
