Child in Night

A child lying on a bead, curled into a ball.

Outside the wind blusters and howls,

More than leaves begin to fall.

-

The monsters of the night do beckon, 

Breaking everything in sight.

Wrapped in blankets, the child scowls.

Terrified for her life

-

The child is older now,

Starting to make it on her own.

Still the winds do terrorize her,

And she feels... alone.
