4 A.M.- it’s much too early <br />It’s no surprise I’m feeling surly. <br />It’s cold outside and lacking light. <br />It feels like the middle of the night! <br />(When you’ve been out late and had a few <br />Mondays are no friend to you.) <br />Villainous clock that chirps and chimes <br />I’ll hit your snooze button one more time. <br />Its cold, and someone stole the covers <br />I reach for them as for a lover. <br />Alas, my larcenous spouse has taken them <br />I guess I’m in for a brewed awakening.<br /><br />John F.
