The Boy Who Hid In the Pillows

He was about 4 feet tall, and boy did he love shopping and playing games at the mall.
His plans  for the future were oh so bright, and he thought all his dreams come true just may be A might!
 He loved to  play outside were the sun was nice and   bright and  the grass was so  green, and there was only A tad  he thought that sometimes his life was  somewhat mean. 
You see there was only one thing that bothered this kid with such A might, and that was sometimes his parents would fight. It  was usually when he went to bed at night, that sometimes his heart would beat with fright, and he would hold the pillows to his ear so tight.
 His  heart felt oh so sad, for now he knew his parents were so  mad. His parents he knew also loved each other, for he also had A brother.  But if only he knew how to fix this , oh if only nothing would go a,miss!  He would tell his little head, that when he grew up surely his children  would not hear this in bed! Finally  when everything was nice and quiet, he got out of his bed so soft, and kneeled and prayed to God that this please not happen as  of oft!
