Mission Possible

Mission Possible

“Wake up!” He called.
She ignored the voice.
“It’s time to wake up!”

The bed was far too comfortable,
so she muffled the sound
by yanking the comforter over her head.

Yet the Son’s rays persistently streamed
through the curtains,
even warming the bedsheets.

Finally she kicked off the covers, stretched,
and called out, “Good morning!
You’re hard to ignore!”

“Good,” He said,
“we have work to do.”
But she wasn’t so sure she
wanted to hear the assignment.
