Emile Pinet Poet Rhyme

Haunted

While checking out a supposedly haunted house
I made my way down into a crypt-like cellar.
All I could hear was the scurrying of a mouse,
but it felt spooky, as though the shadows had eyes.
And I wasn't so sure my being here was wise, 
this decrepit old house might still have a dweller.

All the other kids warned me to stay far away,
vehemently swearing screams were heard late at night. 
I thought I'd be safe in the middle of the day,
but I can sense an evil presence lurking here.
And my pounding heart's pumping fast, fueled by fear
as I run and don't stop till it's well out of sight.
