about
Max worked for a month in music therapy on his "Spooky Song" with Ms. Laura. He chose the sound on the keyboard, chose the poem to be read, and added his own "spooky sounds" as she read.
The money collected from Max's song sales will go directly towards paying for music therapy. Thank you for your contribution.
lyrics
In Darkest Woods He Wandered
In darkest woods he wandered,
one moonless stormy night.
The tree limbs made him shiver
reaching out through lightnings light.
The thunder rumbled its deep warning
and spoke of dreadful things;
for he was out on Halloween
with all it's dark heart brings.
His path led through the woods for miles
and eyeballs watched him travel;
He could feel their wicked smiles
while trying hard not the unravel.
Would he live another hour
or would dark forces take him down?
Would they this traveler overpower?
Did he hear hoof beats on the ground.
The thunder clapped the lightening flashed.
The tree limbs reached to slap at him;
He heard the evil cackle while
all his senses seemed to dim.
The rain was in his face now
as the storm just seemed to grow;
he was lying on his back
and how? he didn't know.
The fear engulfed his total being
he couldn't even speak
and all the evil he was seeing
only served to make him weak.
He jerked awake and saw beside him
another frightened form.
somehow they both were now
together in this awful storm.
He looked at her beside him
and said with eyes quite wide;
I don't feel like sleeping out,
I think I'll go inside!
