Tanka Diary [Awakened too early on Saturday morning]
by Harryette Mullen
Awakened too early on Saturday morning
by the song of a mockingbird
imitating my clock radio alarm.
*
Walking along the green path with buds
in my ears, too engrossed in the morning news
to listen to the stillness of the garden.
