did you not feel that
Diamond Back Estates duplexes gave a shudder
Claire thought it was the folks living next door
She walked outside a few minutes later
And the earth seemed to tremble
Her imagination was working hard today!
At church someone asked her about the earthquake.
Where was it? She asked.
Twenty-three people were incredulous she did not know.
They had all felt it that morning.
Didn’t you feel it?
That’s what it was! I thought the couple next door was being frisky!
Being from the Midwest, she never thought of an earthquake.
