A Rattling Rhyme

Once there was a little redhead Lying on his sweet little bed Suddenly there was a scratching Then his teddy he was snatching Growls, beneath where he was lying With all his might he was trying, Desperately trying to be brave But very soon he'd meet his grave He cringed and pulled up the covers Suddenly starting to hover Violently up, up, up he went He hit the roof and made a dent Soon, he hit the floor with a CRASH He was coughing, lungs full of ash All he could see were two red eyes So paralyzed with fear he died 03/02/2020
