Night Bears

.
When night bears growl,
  grunting and grousing in the dark,
I fly to mom and dad's room,
  crawling under cover and deep between,
Knowing when glare comes to charge,
  neither can stop the bear.
But it is enough, knowing they're near,
  that they're with me in my fear.¹
 

¹inspired by Matt Chapman's, 'dark nights
of the soul' lesson from Psalm 23
