NOTE: This next poem is more of a nursery rhyme than anything. I wrote it to fit a tune similar to that of 'Chim-Chimney' musical number in Mary Poppins.
Down in the basement,
Beyond the dark stairs,
There lay there two children,
Lay down in their beds.
A girl and a boy there,
They sat wide awake,
Waiting and watching,
For the monsters who take.
Hush now, dear
Hush now,
No need to be scared,
Stand there united;
Together and paired.
Rise to the fight,
There's no doubt you will win,
Sleep with your swords and,
Together you sing.
