Notes About The Poem

See the source imageYawn, I know you are sleepy....

Electric

Electricity charged the air
 Sounds of thunder rolled
 Silence of the night dispelled
 The storm takes sleep's toll

 Hairy tried to bark the thunder
 Away, sleep only left
 After a sleepless night
 My brain seems very deft

 A dog trainer he needs or maybe
 A disciplinarian
 Love has not fixed his problems
 He's quite the barbarian

Michael, Thunder is trouble for Hairy. The lightning is what gets us though. He can sense the electricity in the air I think before the storm gets anywhere near and he starts to get anxious. A very nervous and anxious dog. Came to us like that but he is better than he once was. Thanks for the visit. Sara

Tom, It can get rough around here trying to get sleep but the night after the storm and the temperature dropped down to low forties again we both slept soundly. It was wonderful. Thanks for dropping by. Sara
