Under The Covers
"Under The Covers" is a poem my dear Uncle Terry wrote for me for my fourth birthday. He is a brilliant man and is so clever when it comes to poems and ditties. His writings have always captured my attention. No man has ever made me feel so special the way my Uncle Terry can...so i hope you enjoy "Under The Covers."
UNDER THE COVERS:
When the lights go off
And shadows climb the walls,
When floorboards squeak
And no one's there at all,
Under the covers
I'm sure you will agree
Is the safest place
A little girl can be!
When the smells of grass,
Newly cut, scents the breeze,
When crickets chirp
And leaves rustle on trees,
Under the covers
Nodding off sleepily
Is the best place
A little girl to be!
When the sniddles weave
Bright ribbons of moonbeams,
When the quizzlings hop
With questions through your dreams,
Under the covers
Waiting expectantly
Is where little girls
Would surely want to be!
Dolls and doll dresses,
Bracelets, ribbons and curls,
Stuffed animals snug
Glad next to little girls.
Under the covers
Dreaming innocently
If i had my choice
Is where you'd find me!
