The Ninja Man
Location
There’s a ninja man in my window
Watching over me as I sleep
Wishing me sweet dreams
As he fights the demon’s keep
I know he’s just leaves
Blowing gently on the tree
But deep into the night
He seems to come to life
I dream that he takes me away
Off to a distant place
Where he teaches me to be
A ninja like him, a kunoichi
Together we fight
Against the demons in the night
Protecting those near
From everything that they fear
In the morning I wake up
Wondering where I am
Before I see the ninja man
And the dreams come rushing back
I accept the fact that he’s just leaves
Blowing gently on the tree
But when I see him wink at me
I smile and wink back
For although he’s just leaves
Blowing gently on the tree
He’s my living ninja man
And I, his kunoichi
