The nighttime hero


The nighttime hero


Each night, when I climb into bed,
I grab my Pandy by his little arm
He waits for me to fall asleep
He promises to meet me where I am once I have drifted off
He does not breath, but he is real
Pandy knows about the night terrors,
As do all the other stuffed bears.
He gives me a promise every night,
To protect me from unexpected intruders
I don’t see it happen but I know it does
As I wake and I turn over
I know he has worked his nighttime magic
And I look forward to his visit every night
