Still with eyes closed,
wrapped up in blankets
of mammatus, nighttime's
rainstorm having had
the last word, frightening
even our courageous
dog who, usually,
the day after, adores
nosing through blades
to find a tender spirited,
perfect stalk, Sun
decides to sleep in.
Go ahead, dear. Carpe
diem and all that.
Rile up the morning.
