Rampant Little Sister

Folder: 
Irritation

I like thunder at night

But not when it's created by

A younger sibling's feet



It's hard to sleep

As she thunders about downstairs

Doesn't she have the courtesy to be quiet?



I still have never understood

How she can be the tiniest person in the house

But she walks more heavily than the rest of us combined



There she goes again

Thud thud thud down the stairs

Why won't she just let me sleep?

Author's Notes/Comments: 

She walks like a herd of elephants, seriously.
