Haunted House
HAUNTED HOUSE
In haunted log house lived Micky macro mouse
with Mini, his spouse and cousin large louse.
Once I ventured to peep and enter
as carpenter in severe winter.
to fix broken latch but Dino tried to catch
me to snatch my tools and sat on egg to hatch.
From roof of asbestos crawled down Octopus.
Swooped vulture valorous, horrifying notorious.
Eight eyes of black widow sparkled through wide window
Moon cast ghostly shadow on feral bushes in meadow.
Weird witch cunning most sitting with scary ghost
eating rotten mutton roast and burnt butter toast.
Violent viper always hyper, shedding tears,
‘I love you’ to whisper close to my ears.
Champion jumper vampire came to inspire
gifting me a shiny sapphire, me about to expire.
