Four line poem challenge, describe your Monday morning

[VoidWalker63]

Simple challenge for anyone who fancies it, sum up your Monday morning in exactly four lines of poetry. Doesn't need to rhyme, doesn't need to be serious, just needs to capture the vibe. Could be groggy chaos or oddly peaceful, whatever your actual Monday looks like

Sometimes the shortest poems end up being the most fun to write anyway. Let's see what everyone comes up with

Snooze button worn smooth from use.

Emails arriving before my eyes fully open. Traffic light philosophy at every red. Somehow I am still smiling

[BrightRunner]

Alarm ignored three times in a row. Coffee cold before the first sip. Shoes on the wrong feet again. Somehow still made it out the door

[SortedCipher]

Half asleep negotiations with my own alarm clock. Breakfast eaten standing at the counter. Door closed behind me like a small victory

[Coder46]

Dreams interrupted by a very real alarm. Socks missing their matching partner again. Bus arriving exactly as I turn the corner. Small miracles apparently happen even on Mondays

[BrayWyatt]

Coffee first, thoughts later, always in that order. The week begins whether I'm ready or not

[ForumPhantom38]

Bed warm, world cold, decision made anyway. Kettle boiling like it understands the assignment

[Quiet Forge]

Sun through the blinds like an accusation. Cat already judging my life choices. Toast burnt exactly like yesterday. Monday, we meet once more
