Boogeyman

After dusk it appears in fearful minds round Its function is to frighten all around Shapes and names changes all ground Hides under the beds or in closets surround. In the bedroom or bathroom attractive After midnight it becomes active Incline of amorphous shape turns eyes red with tear Creating a power of a deepest fear. Like a tentacles of shapeless form Cowards are more prone to be attacked worm Just in their mind not exactly Frightening by its allusion aptly Spoken by someone elders gaze For disrespecting at tender stage Bad habits were turned to good one Via a boogeyman characters done.

I don't agree with how some parents tell kids if they don't behave the boogeyman will get them. Life is scary enough with crime and crazys running around. I enjoyed your take on the contest Ravindra Congratulations on your win. # 7 ; )
