I had woke from dreamless sleep

And from my bed I did creep

While my family in silence slept

Down the stairway I had crept

Not daring to turn on the light

I saw only by moonlight

And ran my hand along the wall

So I would not trip and fall

Finally now I was down

The journey made without a sound

And then I thought that this was scary

For sure it was extrordinary

This old house had creaked and moaned

The steps had always squeaked and groaned

And now I moved about in silence

This was sure a case for science

Now standing in the living room

Squinting through the dim lit gloom

I looked across the dining table

I'll tell it all if I'm able...
