Creak Poem by Ivan Ng1

Creak

Rating: 4.7


Sleep now, child
Today's adventures
wore this little warrior down

Barney's song
goes through his mind
The boy's as happy as can be

No worries trouble
his cute little head
as he lies awake in bed

Creak!
This single sound
is enough to put
the boy on his feet

'Mommy's back! '
He shouts aloud
Half awake, half asleep.

As small and meaningless something may seem, it always has a deeper meaning to someone. Great work.

A nice poem Ivan, simple and cute but I think Creak is not the appropriate word for a child's sound, it carries awful meaning as well. There must be some other appropriate word for this.In Urdu we call it '' Ghun Ghun '. Anyway, it's poetry and a poet's excellence is to use words in his own way. Thanks for your message. Regards.
