 MONKEY KISSES

QUIET EMOTIONS





It is raining in Tennessee

lightening flashes as I sit on my window seat

My mind wonders through the dreary night

All alone, only candles, no bright light

In my lap my book is upside down

Can't read tonight, I'm listening to the sounds

Goose bumps upon my arms, quite a show from natures realm

Trees bending double trying to touch the ground

This big old house is full of chilling sounds.

Sounds in candle light make your heart beat fast

Is that someone walkin across my upstairs floor

setting perfectly still, holding my breath,

my heart is pumping so very loud

A ball of fire rolls across the lawn, lightening

the lights come on

all the sounds are completely gone

I think I'll save Steven King

for another day.
