Listen to poem:

Just Shaking It Off

lightning flashes on horizon
bones ache
roof leaks
trembles under foot
friend is way overdue
some truck has my number
scratches of little feet in the walls
postie brings more bills
floor creaks
feeling queasy in the tummie
car is playing up
Series 9, Episode 36
Ho Hum!
dandruff 
Let's see what
the cat drags-in,
tomorrow.

Likely more of the same, John. Sounds like you're having one of "those" days. Hey, maybe tomorrow the sun will shine and everything will be better in your life! As for today, you wrote a fine poem!
