I'LL TEACH YOU HOW TO SCARE

By Josie Whitehead

I'll Teach You How to Scare

"Boo!" said a cheeky ghost,
     Playing scary games.
"I said BOO!" again he shouted.
     No-one listened.  What a shame!

​

"BOO!!!" screamed the ghost again,
     As he really tried to scare,

But the cat and dog just shut their eyes
     And didn’t seem to care.

​

The unhappy ghost began to sob:
     "Is no one frightened here?"
The mice, the toad and spider said:
     "You’ll not cause us to fear!"

​

The spider said: "Watch and learn.
     I’ll teach you how to scare."
He quickly ran across the floor 
     And crawled right up a chair.

​

A frightened lady spotted him.
     She screamed and ran away.
"So that is all you need to do.
     Now run away and play."
