Words upon the windowpane,
whispered in the night,
Frosty lines lie etched in gray,
meant to give you fright

Worry not, my dear sweet child,
for I am here with you,
And those who wish to harm us,
never will break through

Winds of howling creatures call,
to terrorize your soul,
But shut your eyes tight, darling,
and listen for the toll

When the night's been lifted,
and light begins to shine,
You'll see that you're all right,
the creatures did not dine

Another day before you,
another night behind,
Terror's in the peoples' eyes,
you swear, a cure you'll find
I wrote this for a good friend's birthday this year (April 9th), and although it wasn't what I intended it to be, I still think it came out nice. (And more importantly, she liked it!) Comments and critiques are always appreciated. :)
