How agreeable it would be if my alarm
clock sounded like a rooster
instead of a screaming siren
in my ear.
I’d be awakened by the rousing call
of a farm animal,
in the city.
Of course, now you have
your choice of sounds to sleep
and awake to: mountain stream, spring rain,
a heartbeat.
This one, I’ve never understood.
Who would want to wake up to the sound
of a pounding heart that’s not his own?
Wake up in the middle of the night
and hear the reminder of man’s mortality?
No. I prefer the rooster call,
the coffee percolator,
my dog’s annoying bark at daybreak,
the silent swish of my his feet
on Burberry carpet as he dresses
in the dark of the room.
