Janet Eaton Poet Rhyme

Out of Water

It’s getting a little warm in here
I’m wondering is there heat somewhere near?

The animals are causing quite a  stir
I hope it’s not to warm with their fur.

I’m here to keep them warm at night
And safe as I can until daylight.

I fear something is definitely wrong
Hopefully someone will check before long.

It’s really getting hot in here
It’s a fire that I most fear.

My structure seems to be getting weak
It’s safety the animals seem to seek.

Oh finally the fire trucks have arrived
Now maybe everyone can be safe inside.

Oh dear, what did I hear them say
They are out of water on this terrible day.

The animals safety for them I pray
I can hear the horses as they neigh

No longer can  I hold this frame
I guess it is the lack of water I can blame
