Things that go bump in the night

Thinking about the sounds I hear in the kitchen,
Hinges creaking and doors slaming
I've come to realize that cats and closet monsters make the same noises;
Not that I've ever actually been introduced to a real live closet monster -
Going through memories of my childhood, I remember having one
Seamore was my closet monsters name.

Thinking back to my childhood, I don't remember being introduced to Seamore,
He just appeared in my closet one Christmas Eve morning,
And I'm sure he didn't say his name was Seamore:
That was the best birthday present I every received.

Given some of the circumstances of my childhood
One can only wonder why Seamore was such a warm and cuddly guy.

Because Seamore didn't like living in dark enclosed spaces,
Until he came to live in my house
Most children just screamed when he tried to open the door,
Perhaps that's why he liked living in my closet, I left the door open.

Indeed, Seamore wasn't the only monster that lived in my house,
Not that I'm going to discuss the other monster (the real one) at this time.

There are closet monster like Seamore
He was my friend
Every night he would come out of the closet to make sure I was all right.

Now I miss Seamore
I think I must have out grown him
Getting him back again would be difficult, if not impossible
However, I am considering writing a story about him
The Friendly Closet Monster Seamore.
