Morning Ritual

Waking up before everyone sometimes has its responsibilities, a role gladly accepted.

An early morning. Still dark, about 5AM. The busy kitchen and livingroom free of customers and window shoppers. The service light of the stove the only real source of life. Coffees ready, a friendly nod to the brewing pot. Its cheery nonexistent smile.

A moment to think to myself. Free from the daily rush. The warm coffee. 5:30, orders come in. Customers to feed. People to please. My favorite people. The morning alarm and the race is off!

Author's Note

I wasn't sure what I was trying to get across. It was an attempt to put a certain emotion on paper, I suppose.

Man, you make 5AM sound fantastic. Usually if I am up at 5AM, it is because I am still drinking, or, I must do something. I typically at 5AM I feel like punching someone like how Patrick Swayze did to that one dude in Ghost.
