How Can You Sleep When the Orchestra Plays? Three Things Challenge #25

My husband and I went to hear the orchestra play.

I couldn’t wait to experience the program for the day.

The orchestra started playing, and silence filled the place.

But, something was making by blood pressure race,

It was my husband sleeping, I gave him a good shake,

Then, he started snoring, and I couldn’t get him to wake.

But, the cymbals clanged, and as the noise reverberated,

My husband woke with a start, and hissing, him I berated

For embarrassing me to death in such a public display,

So I tend the symphony alone now, for it’s the best way.
