Coffee Break
By nature,
a procrastinator,
I awoke early
to finish writing
my last paper
in high school.
The typewriter had
made a few clicks
when I heard my
Mother's footsteps.
Steeled to receive
a scolding, I was
offered a cup of coffee.
"You don't like it
when I do this."
She shrugged.
"You get good grades."
I went back to work,
sipped the warm liquid
and smiled.
Did you procrastinate when it came to homework? Do you procrastinate now?
