A fan on twitter posted an old photo of a Taylor Swift poem that she wrote in 4th grade. Taylor Swift won a National Poetry contest at just 10 years old, which proves her writing skills have always been unmatched! Read the poem below!
Thereโs a monster in my closet and I donโt know what to do!
Have you ever seen him?
Has he ever pounced on you?
I wonder what he looks like!
Is he purple with red eyes?
I wonder what he likes to eat.
What about his size!!
Tonight Iโm gonna catch him!
โจIโll set a real big trap!
Then Iโll train him really well.
Heโll answer when I clap!
When I looked up in that closet, there was nothing there but stuff.
I know that monsterโs in there!
I heard him huff and puff!
Could it be he wants to eat me?
Maybe Iโm his favourite tray.
And if he comes to get me,
Iโll scream loudly, 'Go away!!'
If heโs nice, Iโll name him 'Happy.'
If heโs bad Iโll name him 'Grouch.'
โจI suspect that he is leaving, but if notโฆ Iโll kick him out!
