Cold Wet A.M.

Big morning battle against sleep
Welcome reinforcements arrive
In second cup of coffee
- - - - - - - - - -
The sound of cold wind and rain
Is better heard, I know,
From inside a warm room;
Also goes for looking at snow...
- - - - - - - - - -
Good friend, sadly passed away,
In Facebook and Blog, lives on yet
Even unto this day,
A spirit in the Internet...
- - - - - - - - - -
The Japanese name
For Friday is way
More appropriate...
"Kin-Yo-Bi": Gold Day!
- - - - - - - - - -
Waiting for an idea to arrive
Like it's a UFO,
And my head is Area-51
Then it appears and lands...
From where did it come?
- - - - - - - - - -
Here it has come again!
A familiar, vexing acquaintance,
My first cold of the season...
- - - - - - - - - -
Japan has an Emperor
The tribe's symbolic head,
America has laws and ideals
And businessmen instead.
- - - - - - - - - -
If I had my druthers
Dishwashing and hard thinking
Would always be done by others...
