The power is out in Bellevue
In the style of Dylan Thomas


The power is out in the Bellevue today
All things electronic are a blunder
No more computer games for you to play.

The sirens roar in a high pitched way,
When the lightning strikes before thunder;
The power is out in Bellevue today.

You glance out at the sky - dark gray,
Armed with a mouse and time to wonder...
-No more computer games for you to play.

Hail pings off of cars to your dismay
Your plans for the day, now torn asunder
The power is out in Bellevue today.

Oh, so desperately hoping for the sun's ray,
Your patience begins to buckle under
No more computer games for you to play.

But you failed to 'save' so you must pay,
Can't blame the lightning's successful plunder.
The power is out in Bellevue today.
No more games for you to play.


P.M.O.
Attempting the traditional Villanelle with some fun and rhyme! :D
