Breakfast setting
Dreary Friday breakfast before me
White and frigid outside
Warm bed beckons and mocks me
But work has hollered with a summons
Coffee machine hums, vibrates and steams
Offering warmth with a caffeine kick
Last time this week leaving my bed early
Out into the cold and frosty
I must trek
Good morning one
Good morning all
Stay safe
Stay well

Nice one, Rog! I love the contrast between the ‘White and frigid outside’ and the warm bed inside, and the description of the coffee machine has me about to leap up and switch on the machine!

Thanks Rog, stay safe and well yourself! I have had to do the school run for the first time in 14 weeks this week so I am looking forward to a lie-in tomorrow 🙂

Things we hate to leave behind. Things we wish would bring us comfort but they do not. Ah, LIFE!

Stay safe and warm too. Enjoy the warmth of the coffee before going out to the cold (its frigid winter here too). Have a good weekend.!

Ah, this is so beautifully written. Leaving the comfort of the warmth to venture in the cold, it’s one of THOSE mornings.

Winter mornings can be the worst when you’re summoned to work. A warm cocoon in the bed is way more luring then.

Friday is always special… and these days when working from home….. it seems so different and you can truly be there with your breakfast.
