THE BREAKFAST CALL

I woke up to the aroma of garlic,

the eggs sizzled and the ladle flicked

the spoons and forks, I heard clink


Outside the weather's great

The sun's just behind the clouds

Not so gloomy, not so bright


It is weekend-

the best day of the week!


I rolled in my bed

wanting to sleep more,

then one by one,

our names were called...


"Breakfast is served!"

I rushed down the stairs,


How happy I am

to see mother's dish

The table's set-

omelette, fried rice

and my favorite...


I fixed myself coffee

Oh, so perfect a morning!


Again she called out

for others still asleep...

That's the last thing I heard

I woke up for real...


P.S.

It was a good dream,

to see and hear her again...
