Love for Sleeping Mum
written by Orelinde08:28 AM 2/8/05No snoring comes from the couch
a sign of deep; serene sleep
Turn off the light and TV
"Mum?" it's just a breath,
and again, "Mom?"
"Mommy?"
Leave her be; let her rest
She needs it. |

Author's footnotes and comments on this Poem:
My mom was asleep on the couch... It was about 12:30 on a school night. I wasn't supposed to be online or even near the computer (I was supposed to be in bed) but she was asleep, what could it hurt to write a poem about her?
