Here is one of the poems that I had to cut from the manuscript of my book THINGS TO DO.
THINGS TO DO IF YOU ARE AN ALARM
CLOCK
Don’t
YELL at me!
Don’t
DING-A-LING-LING
with
a harsh metal voice
that
makes my ears ring!
Don’t
jolt me from my sleep
and
start my day off wrong.
Sing me awake
with
a soft morning song.

I'm posting late today. I woke up with a bad cold that knocked me for a loop. I made it through a long, snowy winter. Now that it's spring, I get sick. So frustrating!!!

REMINDER: I'm giving away signed
copies of my book THINGS TO DO! I'll collect the
names of people who have commented on my posts during each week in April. The following
day, I'll draw a name from a bag. That person will be the winner. If
you comment on two posts, your name will be entered in the drawing twice, etc.

I woke up late today, too--I guess I need an alarm clock! (I do have a dog who yawns very loudly.) Hope you're feeling better soon!
JoAnn,
I hope I feel better soon too! I'm leaving for Hattiesburg, Mississippi, next Tuesday.
