Awaking from slumber

I'm stretching. Arms, legs and back. Trying to make myself as tall as possible. Stretching slowly. Waking my drousy limbs. Opening my eyes slowly. Registering where I am, closing them again.

Letting my brain take its time to register place and time. Not ready yet to leave the warmth of sleep.

Not ready yet to face the day and sip my first cup of coffee. Not ready yet to be bombarded with news and to-do-lists.

When the final energy bill has been settled and I've been given my deposit back, I will leave the past weeks slumber and get dressed and reach for that cup of coffee.
