suddenly
in the midst of deep sleep
a fog horn
roared in my ear
"quiet"
I told my husband
then my eyes opened
to light
missed the dawn
light from the windows
no longer dark
quickly
out of bed
coffee to perc
soldier son's
smelly laundry
in the machine
and sipping
water then coffee
getting my
email fix
but the sky's just
one white mush
I missed the dawn
