It's early, it's quiet.. I really do not like it.

Wait till noon when the sun is high, but for now…

It is early, it is quiet.. I REALLY do not like it.

It is not time to eat, it is not the time to play.. I REALLY DO not like it.

Watch a movie, pass the time.. This movie….. I REALLY DO NOT like it.

Can't go back to sleep, my mind has already begun racing.

Can't dance, or sing, for the others are still sleeping.

Can't scream or shout, the others are STILL sleeping.

Can't play with my pet, I don’t have one.

Can't go on a walk, early mornings are cold ones.

It is early, in the morning…. I have to say….. I REALLY DO NOT LIKE IT.

@Egycal52 I've learned to appreciate mornings although they're still not my favorite and I often prefer to sleep in. But I find that early morning hours like 1am to 5am are great when you need utter silence to contemplate life.

I must confess that I AM a morning person, I like my alone time before everyone gets up, but this poem is a pretty convincing argument to the contrary!
