The Boogeyman'Ll Getcha

The Boogeyman'll getcha if ya don't watch out. The Boogeyman'll getcha if ya try to go out. So stay inside and cover up your head. Pull your feet up tight, could be under the bed. The Boogeyman'll getcha, he's out on the hunt, So disguise yourself and growl and grunt. If you must go out you just might get by, If you look like a ghost and moan and sigh. He's free to roam till the Witching Hour, So till midnight's passed our plight is dour; So out on the doorstep leave him some treats, 'Cause he's coming by for something to eat.

As kids our mom and grandma who tell us that if we stayed out after dark the boogeyman would get us, This bought back many memories. Terrific write. Hugs

This poem is ideal for this time of year, Judy. I don't think I've been that naughty, but it's better I watch out for Boogeyman! Regards // paul
