Soothing Symphony of Snoring

There it starts again,

Like a tractor's engine,

My boring husband's,

Loud snoring.

Oh God! Can't you make it stop?

First one to get up,

Last one to finish,

Don't I deserve a peaceful sleep?

After ocean full of thoughts,

And counting from 1 to a lot.

I snooze,

But not for long.

What do I hear? Nothing!

No tractor, not the dreadful engine.

I thank the Lord for making it stop,

As that's what I really want.

But a brief relief turns into horror.

In a matter of minutes, 

I am gripped by terror.

Is he fine? Why isn't he snoring?

He did had a health scare. 

But the doctor said he is alright.

I asked him not to eat that burger,

Don't he know that it hurts his heart?

With a prayer on my lips,

And hope in my heart,

I open my eyes,

And turn to his side.

I touch his arm, warm it is.

I reach for his nose, to see if he exhales.

Before I could reach, he grunts and rolls.

I heave a sign of relief and joy reaches my soul.

Oh God, never make it stop.

For it's a sign that he is next to me.

I will take the noise and din,

Over lonely silence any day. 

So there it goes again,

Like a tractor's engine,

My loving husband's,

Soothing snoring.
