Fright and fear face the life of Mr. Rivers.

Nightmares invade Mr. Rivers’ mind.

Creepy critters crawl from behind.

Slithering snakes slide on his bed,

Crossing pathways to his head.

Ugly spiders from way up high

Spin a web and then they fly.

Ten thousand bats slam at his door.

Mr. Rivers can sleep no more.

A low voice calls out to Mr. Rivers;

Followed by a cold wind that brings on the

SHIVERS.

Mr. Rivers’ face turns white.

His eyes reveal a horrible sight.

Panic and fright play heavy on his heart.

In the end, this world, he will soon depart.
