The Night Stalker
by Peggy Le Johnson © 2006
In the darkness of the forest
in the gloom of forests night
Stare orbs of golden mystery
in the eerie mystic light
My heart beat pounding screaming
no where to run in sight
it's hard to breathe to catch my breath
It's stay or flee or fight!
Creeping closer to my hiding spot
silent creature of the night
stalking breathing closer still
My death I fear in sight
I close my eyes and wonder
will this beast, slay me quick
will I even have a moments time
before my life force slips
slips into another place
my mind is quick to fear
will Hell be waiting there for me
or will I even care
Suddenly a ray of light
reveals the beast so near
A bright and fluffy Calico
was the horrid creature here.
