Monsters of Old

When monsters of old come to mind
 I remember good old Frankenstein
 And if  I should go swimming in the afternoon
I may encounter the creature from the black lagoon

 If a taste for blood is what I desire
 I would definitely bump into some  vampires
 If its the living dead I wish to see
 Then there's all those  flesh eating zombies

 If the full moon should arise 
 The howl of the wolfman will surprise 
 Then there's good old Godzilla
 One of my favorite monster thrillas

Dear Joseph, I love the witty way you describe the most famous monsters of all time. How cool that you were able to rhyme Godzilla with thrillas. Deb is sure to love it too. Wishing you success in her contest. Love, carolyn
