The Monster Song

by Genevieve Sturrock

It's okay to go to sleep
Mommy and Daddy will keep the monsters away
It's okay to close your eyes
Mommy and Daddy are standing by
To keep the monster's away

So go ahead and dream what ever you like
Sailing a boat or riding a bike
Go ahead and dream what ever you please
Mommy and Daddy won't ever leave
Mommy and Daddy will keep the monsters away

If you're dreaming while you're sleeping
That a little monster's creeping up behind you
And you're scared and all alone and far away from home
Here's what you should do
Dry your tears look him right in the eye
Say, "I'm not scared!" And I'll tell you why
Mommy and Daddy will keep the monsters away
Mommy and Daddy will keep the monsters away

Hi Genevieve. Love this. Very reassuring and sweet. Hope you've read it to Georgia. You could even make it a song to sing at bedtime. Nice write.
