Taking Electricity for Granted

we just lost power no biggie I’ll fix something to eat maybe not unless I want cold food I could type up some poems If my computer would work, but it won’t without power the refrigerator is out, the oven is out, the TVs are out the internet is out, the power tools are out Our cars are stuck in the garage I just put the doors down before the electricity died Electricity is something I take for granted Until it goes out Then I appreciate it until it comes back on when I can take it for granted again.
