Morning Thoughts. A Poem

Morning comes early
My father used to say
Quoting a saying
That had become a cliche.

When the sun comes
To us night owls
We are tired
Of being sentries
To thought.
Clearly they need defending
But a rest might
Do them some good.
The light of day rejuvenating
Instead of glaring
And harsh.

Morning should be the gold standard
In rejuvenation
But to night owls
It may seem an imitation.
We need more hours
To get the real shine we need.
We need effing sleep!
For caffeine may offer
Some stimulation
It will wear a hole
In our stomach eventually
Or cause acid reflux
Yes an ulcer can be
A side effect.

Morning people
I would like to join you.
Have you room
On your bench?
Are you willing to share
In your outlook
That morning is precious
And should not be wasted?

That is all rhetorical
It is just a pep talk
To get me to change
To see the light of day
In a new way.
As a friend
Who greets me effusively
Instead of with disdain
For the error
Of my night owl ways.
Independently Romantic Sounds Better Than Lonely

 As a reformed night owl and current morning person, it would be my pleasure to welcome you to our prestigious group should you ever want to see if things are truly greener on the other side.
Very well written. You certainly possess the ability to make me see things from a different point of view. Thank you for that.
