Tap at the window


A tap, tap, tap at the window, I hear it once again
Who is out there, what do they want? It's driving me insane
The roof is creaking as the wind howls into a raging gale
I look at her, she turns around and her face has gone quite pale
The dog cowers in his bed, the cat has now disappeared
There's a mighty crash now things are much worse than we feared

  7. When the dog is cowering in his bed and the cat has disappeared... you know you're in a heap 'o trouble!
    Thoroughly enjoyed this - these 6 sentences are jam packed with a myriad of emotions.
