Poem
Granny`s spooky house My granny has a spooky house she has a spiders web She keeps it in her room at night just above my bed. I cannot take my eyes of it however hard I try As it unwraps its prey from its shiny web and slowly eats a fly. The spiders black and hairy with long and skinny legs I’m sure when I fall asleep at night it crawls about my head. She also has a cauldron it’s filled with poisonous gloop But she says it`s for tomorrow as she’s making homemade soup. I go to bed quite early but Granny stays up late She`s downstairs eating fruitcake it`s like beasties on her plate. Just as it turns midnight her cat comes to the room It snuggles in the corner and sleeps on granny`s broom. It` s coat is black and shiny its eyes are big and green It`s claws are sharp and pointy the biggest that I've seen. Then it starts to hiss and spit and getting up its hackles And Granny starts to laugh at it just like a witches cackle. Now she takes its collar of, it wears a silver bell Then it falls asleep real quick just like she cast a spell. My granny wears a pointed cap when she goes to bed It looks just like a witches hat sitting on her head. Her gown looks like a witches cloak when she hangs it up And then she takes her teeth out and puts them in a cup. And when the house is quiet and everyone`s asleep The doors they start to crackle and the floors begin to creek. The windows really draughty and the heating pipes are knocking And the squeaky stairs out in the hall sounds just like someone talking. There`s footsteps in the attic granny says it`s just a mouse It`s really hard to sleep at night in granny`s spooky house. But when I wake up in the morning and the sun is shining bright I open up the curtains to let in all the light. The cat is in the garden the spiders in its web The doors don’t squeak and the floors don’t creek And I`m snuggled up in bed. Granny`s in the kitchen and I cannot hear the mouse It`s in the attic sleeping in granny`s spooky house
