These once lived a monster under my bed. <br />I thought i heard voices, mum said ''from my head'' <br />I awoke one time in the middle of the night. <br />Hoping this monster would not come to sight. <br /> <br />I got up another night and opened the closet door. <br />The monster jumped out and lay on the floor. <br />I yelled and i screamed, yelled and screamed. <br />''Get out of here you stupid fiend! ! ! '' <br /> <br />But then one day my grampa came at noon. <br />Mum said '' he had to stay in my room''. <br />At first I was furious and very very mad. <br />But my mum told me ''Dont be sad''. <br /> <br />I went to bed and later rubbed my eyes. <br /> I thought about breakfast eating mince pies. <br />Finally my eyes began to close. <br />But woke to snoring out of his nose. <br /> <br />In grampas's sleep he held my hand. <br />He dreamed about his wife, my Nan. <br />Grampa drolled and he snored, drooled and he snored. <br /> The monster came out and pleeded ''No More! ! ! '' <br /> <br />In the morning, I looked under my bed <br />But all i found was my teddy bear, Ned. <br />I went up to my Grampa, who was holding his mug. <br />I sat down beside him and gave him a hug.<br /><br />Tim Young<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/epic-poem-the-monster-under-my-bed/
