just once would be enough

once, just once, i'd love
to hear
a woman's voice yell up
the stairs
from the kitchen, bang
a spoon against a pan,
and say, breakfast is ready.
are you coming down?
french toast and eggs.
bacon.
the coffee is on.
come on sweetheart,
rise and shine.
just once would be enough
to make my life
complete.
