Scaredy Cat

I guess I’m just a scaredy cat …
I feel afraid of everything.
Sometimes I almost jump a mile
when I hear a telephone ring.


It's even scary in my room
so I’ve got to have a light.
Who knows, there might be monsters
underneath my bed at night!


When daddy drives across a bridge
I always hold my breath
just in case the bridge fell in
I wouldn't be drowned to death!


Stick my hand inside a box?
First tell me what is in it!
Wait, my sister’s yelling …
I’ll be back in just a minute.


I guess I’m braver than I thought.
Sissy made me sit beside her.
She said I was a hero
'cause I smushed a big black spider!

I haven't heard that term (scaredy cat) used in years! True delight to read your children's verses.
