June L. Monster Description

A Perilous Monster

As I approached my closet doors I thought I would die. My lips quivered, my hands shaking, my heart pounded with fright.

I could see through the shutters, the monster so scary, I could tell he was black and white, he was smelly and hairy.

I peered into the slits, he was now spotted, and his head had antennas like a creepy insect that you can find in a cold, dark dungeon. 

I did not want to open the doors, I wanted to go hide and not face this freak, that appeared part animal, part human and I was the weak geek.

I do not want to get my mommy or daddy this time, because they would not see. They never see what I see.

I knew I had to face him; I was tired of being afraid. I needed to open the doors and somehow scare him away.

Ok, here I go, I’m going to do it now, Ugh, my mouth is dry, I think I need to back away and get some water to quench my thirst and I sighed.

I ran to my bathroom and took a sip, and then I thought, I could take a glass of hot water and throw it on him!

OK, here I go, I’m going to do it now, ugh, and I’m so scared!  I told myself to do it fast, do it quick, open the doors and I did.

The closet doors quickly opened, my eyes were shut tight, and the glass of hot water was spilled, I was prepared for a fight.

I opened my eyes, oh what did I see! It was only my clothing, and a hat above it with smelly old gym shoes beneath.

There had been no monster!  All along it was just my clothing, just my clothing, which took my breath away this very night.

I laughed out loud with joyful tears, oh what a truthful plight this night… was for me!
