A Scream In The Night

                   Scream In The Night 

As I lay with the light shining eerily off the moon,

I slept soundly, morning always came way too soon !

When suddenly, a wild piercing blood curdling scream

Startled me to a jolt from my world of dreams,

I sat bolt upright,chilled to the bone,

Something not human. possessed my home, 

Banging and thumping I could hear from afar, 

The moon light skipped in through my door ajar,

Gingerly, half asleep, I stumbled out of my bed, 

To face the confusion that was causing me dread ! 

The screaming bounced around, resonating off every wall,

I tiptoed as quiet as I could, heart beating into the hall,

The banging and screaming multiplied and amplified,

My beating heart and thumping fear became louder, fortified,

The source of the hullabaloo became clearer and clearer,

I edged up closer and closer getting nearer and nearer 

To the terrific noise, the source which was now hardcore !

As I felt along the wall with fingertips to the mouth of the door,

Entering I came face to face with a pink coloured tangle,

                            

                            

Goo Oozing out of a face that seemed mangled,

A monster possessed just wanting to fight, 

I'd completely forgot that tonight was that night

I promised, I'd take to it like a duck to water, 

A night I could look after my god-daughter 

A cuddle and coo to this little angel ensued

For if her mummy and daddy knew this story,

I would be totally screwed !!!!
