Where Is the Light
WHERE IS THE LIGHT
by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS
What evil spirits and demons inhabit the night
I need someone, anyone to turn on some light
I’m here all alone suffering with my plight
I’m shaking and shivering with endless fright
I fear huge dragons snorting fire at night
Please send me the dawn brilliant and bright
Giant snakes hissing wanting a chance to bite
Ducking below the covers I’ll stay out of sight
Ugly old witches on their brooms in flight
Tiny gnomes with big heads dance in delight
Gargoyles look down from a towering height
Fire breathing steed with a headless knight
I hear a rooster crowing and I’m still alive
Its getting light now once more I will survive
Had their chances to get me again I will deprive
Night is a scary time when you’re only five
