6am.

6am is a funny time
Too early to wake
Too late to sleep
In limbo.

Floating from night
Into the daylight
I am a wanderer
I wonder as I wander
Who is awake at 6am?

The commuters as they wake
The insomniacs still awake
Mothers of small children
Sleepy eyed teenagers maybe...

Who is awake at 6am?
The birds as they sing
The bees do their thing
I was never told about
The birds and the bees.
