Grumpy Kind of Day

GRUMPY! Tonight is a grumpy night.

A groaning, moaning kind of night.

Tossing and turning while yearning for rest.

The kind of night that makes me stressed.

I pull the covers to my chin

then I throw them off again.

Midnight, two and then there's four.

Why am I even trying anymore?

Finally! When I'm good and comfy. . .

The alarm goes off, making me GRUMPY!

GRUMPY! Today is a grumpy day.

A growling, grumbling kind of day.

Cold rain and wind, when yesterday was sun.

The kind of day I’d love to shun.

To pull covers over my head

and stay hidden in my bed.

But responsibilities wait

and so I must not be late.

To work I go, feeling frumpy. . .

Which makes me all the more GRUMPY!

Day 18, Poem 18: 

Today's poetry prompt was to write a poem that the first word and the last word are the same. I have thought about it off and on all day, wondering what word to use:

Remember. . . Why. . .Wonder or even Wander. . . .What, When, Where, AHA!

Then, I decided to use the word that most described how I feel today - GRUMPY! 
I haven't slept well in what seems like ages. When you don't rest well, eventually the exhaustion seeps over into your daytime hours and like it or not, it effects your attitude and everything else! So, luckily, tonight's poem came easily and I have hopes for an early bedtime. . .and, I pray, a much more peaceful sleep.
