The Intruder

Asleep at last, drifting toward dreamland
Wrapped in warmth and peace
Falling
Deeper
Deeper
Then....
Beep!
Beep!
Beep!
Arms flailing towards my intruder,
This thief of sleep

Finally subduing my unwanted guest  
I smile in triumph! crawling back in my bed

(giggles in delight) Curse that intruder, if only it had a mouth so it could be washed out with soap! LOL! This is a delightful debut, sweet friend, I LOVE IT!!! Welcome to Passions, sweet Miah, may you be inspired by all of us here as we will all be inspired by your lovely words! I can't wait to read more of your lovely words, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Miah, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Miah,  

I like this poem...very effective title...
grabs the interest well.  Oh yes,  I know
all about these noisy little rascals...I
have two of them,  sitting patiently at
the head of my bed...

Waiting silently....for the right moment...

BEEP BEEP BEEP!

Nice to see you hear at Passions, enjoy yourself...

Sunshine,  Thank you so much for your welcome.  Passions already feels like a home. And Cats are awesome, I have one myself that thinks he is king of the castle.

Poet DiVne,  It would be an alarm clock I think I may go buy the kind that has different sounds on it, like waves and falling rain. Of course my luck I would be running to the bathroom every five seconds. :-)  And thank you for welcoming me, you all are so kind.

and Bill,
I am glad you understand that darn BEEP! Thanks for posting

Miah,
Welcome to Passions. From the comments it seems we've all experienced that particular intruder. You wrote this well.

Haha, I have a really cheap beep beep that often doesn't know what time it is.
OOPS, maybe it helps to set it to 'alarm' ???

Welcome. We can always use more lighthearted humor like this on these blue pages.

Welcome to Passions. Cursed alarms. I say they should all come with hammers for those days you just need to stay in bed. BANG! No more beep beep beep.
