Within the shadows lurk monsters <br />Who live on all our fears <br />They hide away from laughter <br />And feed upon our tears <br /> <br />The monsters thrive on misery <br />They grow when you feel sad <br />Or when they hear an angry word <br />In times when you’ve been mad <br /> <br />To keep them in the shadows <br />Stand tall forever proud <br />To keep away the misery <br />And let yourself laugh loud <br /> <br /> <br />© 2008 David Threadgold <br />Rambling Riddles & Rhymes<br /><br />David Threadgold www.davidthreadgold.com<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/3-shadow-monsters/
