Set to Vibrate

Poem Artwork

A night at its darkest before the dawn


A young wife still asleep under the covers


A young husband startled awake beside her


Glass in windows and doors are rattling


Lampshades are a dancing atop lamps a swaying


“Wha’ the” he mutters,


The still sleeping wife reaches over


Pats him on the shoulder


“It’s okay honey. I set the alarm clock to vibrate


An earthquake in North Alabama


Felt all the way to East Atlanta


Five point O on the Richter scale


But it is okay


It is only the alarm set to vibrate

Out of a dead sleep, that's enough to give anybody a heart attack. She could at least have told him ahead of time. LOL

My daughter is the sleeping wife. This really happened; but she can sleep through anything. So I wasn't surprised when her husband told me about it.

We just had a 4 point something! Monday night the world was set to vibrate! So accustomed to them now, "Oh it's just an earthquake." and poof, back to sleep.

I think Congress should form a committee to investigate the harm vibrators can have on unsuspecting sleepers...but then, they say vibrators have their advantages too.

Fun read,
Thanks,
Dan
