.4. Don’t Be Afraid Poem by David Threadgold

Let nothing ever bother you
Don’t ever be afraid
For everything you see each day
Is only what man's made

Don’t listen to the stories
From people who would scare
And anything that worries you
With friends be sure to share

Look not for ghosts or goblins
Where cobwebs fill a house
If anything moves by its self
It might just be a mouse

The darkness hides no terrors
Only what’s within your head
What you believe will do no harm
But check beneath your bed
