One night at 6:43 I heard

a ding so I stopped typing

on my computer

i had 1 new message

i picked up my phone

and got good news

I felt the smooth wood table

as i put down my phone

i let out a loud squeal

and yelled up the stairs

the text was from my sister

i like her she’s nice

The movie was still playing 

i didnt care

i ran to the stairs

and danced around

My sister is pregnant

i’ll be an aunt

i told my brother

he’ll be an uncle at 9

mom said good for her

She said if sister is happy

then she's happy

James and i were happy

i sat back down at my spot

at the smooth wooden table

And went back to typing

the click and the clack

and the ding

was the soundtrack that night.
