Magpie Tales #237 Not an Early Bird

Morning Curtains 
Image provided by Tess Kincaid of Magpie Tales


Lacy curtains cover her eyes
It's really too early to arise
Foggy thoughts fill her head 
She'd really like to still be in bed
Sleeping warm and and very happy
Better bring her some coffee...
And make it snappy!

    Yes, I was brought a cup of tea in bed this morning. No, it was not done out of kindness, but of necessity. I needed to be forced out of bed. The tea started it and the bladder finished the job. :-)

I love comments and will attempt to reply to each one. However, lately I have been getting "Unknown" comments that are linked to some sort of web page. I will never open this sort of comment and will immediately mark as spam. I am not interested in opening something that could be detrimental to my blog security etc. Never have enjoyed hackers! Thanks!
