I was fast asleep.
and had a dream of a heap ( of toys).
But suddenly I heard a clang! Bang!
My dog started to bark and I said: "Be quiet Fang!"
Then there was a loud shutter
"Who is it" I started to mutter
...A loud scampering of feet
I stood up ready to see the danger I was to meet!
Then when I was just about to pounce on the intruder
There was was a hooting sound(probably my friend Hooter)
I counted:1...2...3... "Mom,Dad"
What a fit I had
They told me to go to bed
and cool down my head
I slept off again
...When
There was that shutter once more
and a saucer hitting the floor
I was fully awake
when my mom said: " It's only a quake
I slept off soundly
then there was a wining
so beastly and houndly
The End!
