Early Morning at My House
With visitors, we are as quiet as a mouse!
Looking out my window to the tall trees
No squirrels or birds at the bird feeder
The green grass, the field, the rain and the bees
6:00 a.m. and no one yet awake here
~
Our son and granddaughter came to visit
Love to have company — is what we said
It’s fun with a daughter who came to sit
Cards after our four-year-old went to bed
~
Such a cutie — but she prefers beauty
Time to water my plants and cook breakfast
A finch is at the feeder, the cutie
Too soon to cook, we intermittent fast
~
I appreciate it is time to write
A sonnet it is, that sounds about right!
