The Nightmare

One night , While crossing a little forest, On the way home, I felt I heard a grumble, I felt the earth rumble. Right after that, When I took up courage, And walked the way towards home, I heard another grumble And I felt the earth rumble. This time I was struck with fright And stood rooted at my place, That’s when through the bushes , I saw a pair of glittering lamps. Thinking it was a trick, I continued to walk home, And suddenly I confronted , The owner of the glittering lamps. Can you guess it was a tiger, Pushing its way towards me, That’s when I felt my self shiver, And closed my eyes in fright. Soon I opend my eyes, And looked around, I thought it was a miracle I found my self at home. I soon realized, That it wasn`t a miracle, I was sleeping all along, All I had seen was a nightmare.
