Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Mood Set

It was a dark and stormy night.

A power outage had occurred.

Safe in my room in candlelight,

Lightning is seen and thunder heard.

Unable to sleep, I did take

A favorite book down from the shelf

For good company while awake,

As I read aloud to myself.

Each poem I read, I knew so well,

And with such foul weather outside,

I felt inspired me to excel,

Reading each poem aloud with pride.

A time and place I enjoyed so,

Poetry shared with Mr. Poe.
