Midnight Hide N' Seek by BermyBye50
Childhood writing prompt entry

 

At the stroke of midnight, we gathered around,

To play hide and seek, where shadows abound.

We scattered across the front yard with delight,

Searching for perfect spots to hide in the night.

 

The seeker then counted, eyes tightly closed,

As the countdown began, our excitement rose.

Our screams and giggles echoed far and wide,

As we each looked for the best place to hide.

 

"Ready or not, here I come!" filled the air,

The seeker set off on the night's fun affair.

Excitement and zeal filled our hearts with glee,

To be the first person to cry out “Home Free.”

 

When everyone was found, we tumbled down,

In a heap on the grass, laughter all around.

Breathless and happy, we lay in the night,

The stars above twinkling, a magical sight.

 

It was a night of fun unforgettable thrills,

A wild adventure we hold very dear still.

A memory cherished, so special and sweet,

The joy of the game made the night complete.
