Mornings.

57 15 6
                                    

Mornings at six,

The aches and the pains,

The cacophony of Radio 2,

Not a sound to be heard,

Not even a bird,

Repetition, a ruck, feeling blue.


Mornings at seven,

So tired and depressed,

As I trudge to the station again,

Not a soul you will meet,

As you stroll down the street,

Deep in slumber are luckier men.


Mornings at eight,

One becomes somewhat sprightly,

As I leap up from platform to train,

The carriage - not cramped,

Just me and a tramp,

Both solemn and lonely - the same.


Mornings at nine,

My eyes still half open,

Mood is still cold, unforgiving,

As we get to my stop,

From my seat I do hop,

And enter the land of the living!
