Nature's Revenge

I know that nature abhors a vacuum

and I should have been more careful.

My cordless wonder was fully charged

As I brought it out the front door.

A still fell upon the street

as the appliance emerged.

The birds on the feeder stopped eating

And fixed their beady eyes on me.

The squirrels sauntered menacingly

their teeth chattering in rage.

Above the clouds began to gather

Swirling in ominous hues.

The trees began to creak and sway

and vines started to writhe.

Clouds of flying insects started to gather

while the ground began to swell with bugs.

Fearfully I raised my fist and exclaimed,

"This really sucks!" and brandished my tool.

From all around me a loud groan rolled

as my words were translated to the nature.

Everything went back to normal because

nothing is worse than a bad pun.
