The Storm A tempest, a hurricane, a tragedy. You can imagine it came as a shock to me, Sitting at home with the telly on, Hearing the wind outside howling it's song. The windows shook, the house shuddered, The tv began to protest and spluttered, The power died and my house turned black, I thought I was wrapped in a bad movie attack! My phone, just beeping, was my only light, As I strode through the house at the dead hour of midnight, The storm was still raging, and I prayed for rescuers; Jesus or Superman; hey, beggars can't be choosers! The storm passed over, and the tv began to splutter and jive, I screamed like Frankenstein, crying out 'It's Alive!' So passed the tempest, the deadly raging storm, And my house couldn't be in better form! ******************************************** #rowntrees #randoms #boredom
