The Horror

On the request of my friends,

One day I played hide and seek.

I hid in my lonely storeroom

And felt something on my side.

The light was turned off 

And I was all alone. 

I was a little afraid

But, couldn't cry or moan.

It was very late,

So I came out.

I felt so irritated,

That I began to shout.

I called my friend many times

But did not hear any sound.

At last after sometime

I went to the building's round.

It was very late

And no one anywhere

I was alone in my house

And this is true I swear.

I went upstairs,

For the red telephone

I went to my room and

Saw something that shone

I went near that 

And saw something on the mat

When I went nearer

I saw a big fat cat

It came to my room 

I don't know why and how

I started then to shoo it out

It started doing meow - meow

I chased it throughout the house

And that was another round 

I locked him with myself in

And heard another sound 

I looked backward and said-

No one is here!

I looked forward 

And the cat was not there!

I started to open the door

With sounds like knock knock

But couldn't open the door

For the oldest broken lock.

I was left inside that room.

My hopes were going low.

Then suddenly I saw there

My house's great window

That was the only way 

To go out for a brave.

So I jumped out from the window

And landed near a cave.

Actually it was not a cave

 But a house very old

There lived no one but a ghost

This is what I've been told

It was just like movies 

I went there just before sunrise

I then opened the door

And saw not bats but, flies!

I started to laugh and said-

These are just some flies.

Then I saw through a window 

A thing with very giant size.

I went to see the big fat tall

With each thing and all

With an old golden shawl

Nothing but an idol.

I heard a wolf crying 

And saw a large graveyard 

It was feeling strange

Though I went forward

I saw a man staring at me 

With a big flat tray

With a red liquid in it

So I ran the other way 

Wolfs were chasing me 

Through the road with no people

I got exhausted by running so fast

And went inside a temple 

The wolfs went away 

And the lights also lit up

Everything was being normal

Including that horrible setup

The road was full of people 

And a little pup

I was in a relief

And suddenly heard - wake up

I opened my eyes 

And saw my pup's eyes gleam.

Then, at last, I realized

That it was just a dream.

Then my mother said-

Drink this juice of Neem!
