Dark Eyes Looking

There is someone watching us.
Under a table? No, but I know she's watching us.
Would she jump out and scare us?
We looked all around but I know she an see us.
Maybe if we scare her first!
Then she'll attack us with a curse!
Oh, what shall we do?
All of us cried and yelled boo hoo.
The eyes under the wardrobe grow bigger and bigger.
We yell, "Someone is going to pull the trigger!"
BOOM! But it misses.
