She came to me the other night.
"What is that noise?"
"It's the fireworks (all month long)"
"I can't sleep."
That was in her bed
in her room
fan going
didn't drown out the noise.
Tonight she is in a tent in
the backyard next door
Flashlights going
I can hear her friend talking
and his Nana asking
why don't they all go to sleep.
I let Highness outside before I went to bed.
He usually returns in less than an entire minute.
But he's out there lying down.
It's been almost thirty.
He must be taking comfort in the voices of
Jenna and Trume.
Hopefully I will have more details tomorrow
about this exciting campout.
