From April PAD Challenge


Escape

 

I had the creeps, the jitters, too.

Ill-omened gray replaced the blue.

Wild wind breathed hard my terror grew.

I must escape! I must escape!

 

The house was empty, but for me,

The windows scraped by claws of tree.

The monster’s growl dared me to flee.

I must escape! I must escape!

 

With pounding heart and knees too weak

And goose bumped skin, and feeling bleak,

I called my cousin ‘cross the creek.

“I must escape! I must escape!”

 

What else was I supposed to do?

She braved the rain, the lightning, too.

In Gremlin car she made it through.

I did escape, I did escape.
