House Alive And A Snoopy Moon
House Alive And A Snoopy Moon
Eek! You heard the floor boards creak?
Could there be monsters living under the house?
There are things bigger than a mouse?
I’ll tell you what it’s been --
creeping Old Man Winter is stumbling in.
I’ll adjust the thermostat and that
Will be the end of that.
A hot chocolate, then bed.
It’s three a.m. and something creepy, crawly
just brushed against me. I turn to see
a toothy grin. It’s you again. What have we now?
What makes you so small under my covers, my lamb?
A dark figure creeps on your wall? Ahhhh,
that peeping moon spying in made a shadow
of that oaken limb, waving, hello!
Let’s go tuck you in again.
Hear every pipe expanding with hot air?
You see, no reason to care -- for they groan with despair
now that winter is here in our tiny, drafty house,
where you snuggle like a mouse.
You have your night light on, as I sing
a song. You can join along. Let’s drown out
these things that go bump in the night --
close our eyes to prevent sight.
Hear your heart beating -- just like the house heating?
This home is just like us. In the morning,
when you ride the bus, you can tell tales
of monsters that wailed -- that sadly couldn’t frighten.
And, in your heart you'll lighten, breathe a sigh,
happy to know on high the moon watches you
while your mommy and daddy sleep.
Now, let’s count some sheep.
