Evolution

Barking

Coughing

Growling

Snarling

Not a little

Loving

Darling

Six a.m and

Waking up

Looking for

His breakfast cup

Tea will wake

The addled brain

Make the man

Himself again

Showers shaves

Dons cologne

Giving hair

Final comb

Checking tie

Shoes to lace

Ready for

The human race

chuckles...

Can definitely relate... waking humans are not always a pretty sight. I've come to love your wit-filled humorous writes! ------------------------------------------------------- "Until that ‘morrow render unto me That which is mine my stipend well deserved The fairest flower of your progeny Your sons, your daughters your hopes and your dreams The cruel consequence of your conceit" - Steve Earle
