Little monsters

Little monsters
Scary monsters
Roaming round the night

Claws outstretched
and teeth bared wide
Looking for a freight

Little children cuddled up
In bedrooms
Tucked all tight

While dreaming, hoping, wishing
Little monsters
Do not come into sight

Scurry, scurry
Creak, creak, creak
Little monster feet

Pitter patter
Little claws
Stomping round the street

Peeking in the windows
and lurking behind the door

Do you see the little monsters?
Listen and hear them roar

  1. I am enjoying your range of poems. This one seems like a story you would tell to a child before bed, a previous poem is a puzzle...etc. Read this one out loud to see where there are too many words for the rhyme scheme. There are a few places where just a snip would do. Great job.
