rise and shine

Dear Sunshine,

As much as I look forward to you every morning .. you were annoying today. You blinded me as I was gobbling my breakfast - the breakfast my loving husband meticulously laid out for me - as is his tradition every weekend. You were too bright for first thing in the morning. You were too intense. You were too much - more than I could stand. I still have little black spots in my eyes.

I was sitting in my living room, and you invaded my life. I didn't invite you in. You were an unwelcome visitor at that hour of day. You were unwelcome today. This morning wasn't the time for you and if I were you, I would disappear behind a cloud and only reappear when I say so.
