The Stormy Monster

    The Stormy Monster

    Out side in the dark
    There were howls and growls
    Monstrous in sound
    Terrifying and loud.

    Scared and worried Matty
    Didn’t know what they were
    So she hid under her blankets
    Huddled up in a ball.

    Were these the noises of monsters?
    Perhaps even aliens?
    It was to dark to see…
    To dark to be sure.

    She consulted with her Kitty
    The most wise of all
    But her kitty was worried too…
    Looking outside just as she was.

    There was only one thing to do…
    One thing that could be done.
    She would have to venture outside
    And face whatever lurked!

    So she put on her jacket
    And wrapped up so warm
    She took a big breath
    And she opened the door…

    “YOU THERE MONSTERS!”
    She said in a shout…
    “Why are you at my house…
    Growing and howling!”

    But as she shouted
    She realized the truth
    There were no monsters
    No aliens at all.

    What she saw was even scarier
    More terrifying than her fears
    What she saw made her gulp
    And shut the door again quickly
    It was a storm!
    LOUD and NOISY
    The wind was what was howling!
    The rain and snow what was growling.

    And why was this scarier?
    More terrifying than her fears?
    Because no longer did she worry about herself
    But now all her friends as well.

    Stay safe everyone,
    She said….
    Stay Warm…
    Be brave…
    And soon it will be over,
    Just please take care.

    Love Matty
