A loud roar in the night
It wakes me up, in a fright.
Where did it come from, this loud roar?
A lion, a tiger, maybe a boar?
My body tenses up, I’m very scared.
How will I defend myself, I’m not prepared!
But I open my eyes, I must be brave
I have a family that I must save.
I turn around not sure what’s in store
And then I sigh for I fear no more.
That noise, that big loud roar
All it was, was my husband’s snores…
–Authors Note: Yes I did write this at 2am after my husband’s snoring work me up and I couldn’t fall back asleep. Leave note in the comments if you can relate 🙂
