Good Night

As they peacefully slept And then began to dream Into their dreams he crept And slowly extinguished their breath He was the dream merchant of death Causing insomnia all over Making many afraid to sleep Lest he enter under their covers He was the invisible killer Who put the chill in chiller So don't sleep tight, let the bed bugs bite Or you may get a fatal fright As the dream merchant bids you..... good night 6 -5- 2013

Like a fairy tale and when you think about it, some of them can be kinda creepy!! Nicely done.

Very well written but I wouldn't want to read it at night before falling asleep. Is this for a contest? I think it is a winner.
