Enjoying Morning SIlence

Enjoying the Silence of the Morning

19


Every morning
I wake up
Watching the news
Drinking my coffee
Contemplating reality

But after a while
The constant noise
the endless talking heads
the pundits lying

begins to get to me
giving me a case
of the blues

I turn off the noise box
The chattering chatbots
And silence the internet

Turning on some music
Drinking herbal tea
Enjoying the silence
Of the morning
Once more


NEW PROMPT: Tomorrow, February 25, is Quiet Day, a day in which to appreciate silence. Write a story or poem about someone trying to find some peace.
