At Four


I woke from a  s w e e t  dream and it was four,
          and in a trance I walked into a door;
then I tripped on my   C A T   done that before,
     walking in the dark of night - like what for.
My head hurts and my foot is really sore,
          and after that darn sneaky cat, I tore;
then I slid on my   s h i n y  hardwood floor,
     crashed into a table and loudly swore.
I  w o k e   u p  in my bed from a big snore,
          a dream- or was I sleep walking at four?

Excellent! Cat tripping, I've learned, bothers them more than us! Your poem is a wacky event that would happen to me, I just love the humor, style and content - I love it all! Good luck in all things ... CayCay

The strange things that happen when we are asleep or even partially awake. The mind is a really fun thing to think about, and you are so good at it.
