Waiting...

....for the coffee, it's that time of day,
after sleeping in, boy! I really hit the hay!
Maybe I was tired, with all the activity,
got those kids up here, it was fun to see.

Three of the four, here all in one day,
doesn't happen often, or in that way,
we had a great lunch, but the dogs couldn't go,
so we had to eat without Gizmo or Frodo.

Frodo likes the snow, he plows with his nose,
rolls around, going nuts, his enthusiasm shows,
'Mo just likes to stand back, on his haunches he sits,
he takes no part, doesn't think it fits.

Hollie was happy to see everyone,
of course she's always open to a little fun,
she was surprised to see her sister home,
then when she knew Jon was here, it thrilled her to the bone.

And Rhonda, of course, was glad to see them all,
Darlene and Jon, and Hollie standing tall,
they enjoyed the company of each other,
all watched over, by a very loving mother.

So, that's how the day went, we had a good time,
that's quite a bunch, that family of mine,
now it's after one, in the morning that is,
sleeping in on Sunday, coffee's on, no fizz.

I think I'll go push buttons, a daily chore,
push them all, no favorites for sure,
and I know you'll join me, in that simple task,
it's fast and it's easy, not too much to ask.

If you are approaching, the end of your rope,
and if your lost, with no sense of hope,
go right up to the end, then tie a knot,
just hang on tight, ask for help, fear not.

Coffee's on!
