Up early to make coffee

I am more of a morning person than my beloved. Still, I am really not a morning person.

Up early

To make coffee

For my beloved,

To sit with him

Before he leaves,

Pour the coffee

Into his Bugs Bunny mug,

A dollop of cream.

Up early

To help him

Out of the haze,

Emerge into the light,

Kiss him out the door,

Then

Only then

Go back to bed.
