I'm not afraid of bugs
Or anything that crawls
I'm not afraid of noises
Or bogeymen in the halls
I'm strong for my age
I can climb the highest tree
The only thing I fear
Is when the giant comes for me...
He looms in the doorway
Such hate in his eyes
Towering high above me
He never hears my cries
I am so very small
Under his powerful hand
I can't defend myself
From this giant of a man
I'm not afraid of ghost
Or the man in the moon
I'm not afraid of bears
Or a scary cartoon
I'm not afraid of spiders
Or the big bumble bee
The only thing I fear
Is when the giant comes for me...
I'm not afraid of bullies
That taunt me in the park
I'm not afraid of shadows
That linger in the dark
I'm not afraid of monsters
Or things I cannot see
The only thing I fear
Is when the giant comes for me...
Very well written Linda. I got two separate messages from this poem. A cute childrens poem, and yet a child who seems to be afraid of his father, as I was. Excellent poem. May God bless you every day of your life.
This book was written for children to stress the importance of being able to choose who gets to hug or touch them and being able to say NO if they don't want to be hugged or touched.
Peace
