Limerick- Fear Poem by Valsa George

Limerick- Fear

Rating: 5.0


Scared by his own shadow, in the dark
He sat, with his face turned back.
Behind him he heard a hiss
That made him to piss
Alas! Nothing but a mouse he could mark!

if i didn't know that scared by his own shadow*** was an idiom, i would surely have said: how can there be a shadow if one is in darkness? *** afraid/scared of your own shadow - definition and synonyms phrase very easily frightened Synonyms and related words Not brave or willing to take risks: cowardly, spineless, feeble... =============================== ok! don't call it an idiom! phrase, if you wish! ! bri ;)

i'm glad he didn't hear a spit! ! ! thanks for the punctuation! especially in these lines: Scared by his own shadow, in the dark He sat, with his face turned back. ........without the punctuation, it could be read very differently. well, NOT 'very' differently. what have i unleashed by teaching Valsa how to use comedy! ? to MyPoemList. bri :)

It's funny how when alone in the dark every sound is very audible and it does make one alert. I would be jumping at every sound especially after watching a horror movie alone late at night.
