Our Hurricane

Our Hurricane

 

 

This our first time

sleeping late

into the morning

so you reduce your room

to ruin

tossing your blankets

and pillows

off your bed

reeling around

and around

like a whirlwind

rushing through

you grow giddy

by the moment

shattering the silence

with your laughter

thundering throughout

the peaceful house

you wreak havoc

on everything

found in your path

leaving the den

in a state

of devastation

with all your toys

scattered everywhere

you storm

into our bedroom

dizzy with excitement

whirling around and

around us

so we are forced

to rush

from our warm bed                                           

out of fear for                                                  

the safety of our home

My sister has two huge dogs. One is a Bull Mastif, and the other is a Rottweiler. Sweetist dogs in the world, but, Oh, my word! When you take those two dogs and throw the three kids in the mix. You have a tornado!!! So, I know what you mean!! Very good poem, and very different!

I like the potrayal of the hurricane, great way to describe any chaotic lifestyle!!!
