| Can you believe it? |
Last night my dog was whining
he was sniffing ‘round the door
but when I tried to let him out
his tail went to the floor.
This morning I awakened
to a horrible mess
a critter had created
to get a peaceful rest.
I marched into the bedroom
woke my husband with a start
said that we’d been robbed
nearly stopped his heart.
(That’s what it takes to wake him up)
he jumped right out of bed
followed my direction
“A raccoon,” is what he said.
He checked behind the wall
which leads to the garage
the hole did not go through
but this was no mirage.
So now I must just sit here
and wait ‘til he gets home
go crazy with each little sound
and try to write this poem.
