“Rise and shine. Hit the deck,”
Daddy’s wake up call,
rings in memory today.
I arise but fail to shine.
Maybe later, but right now,
it’s all I can do not to growl.
That thought though,
does bring a grin.
My light already is less dim.

My dad’s wake up call was similar: Rise and shine, it’s hard but it’s fair; you had a good life but you wouldn’t stay there. That does make me grin. 🙂 I think it was an army wake up call – not necessarily appropriate for two little daughters.
