“Trick or treat!”

You have a treat for me?
Bagfulls of goodies,
Such nice children!

Don't keep me waiting now,
What do you have
For a cantankerous old coot?

No, you say?
I’M supposed to give YOU....?
Are you sure?

I mean, YOU’RE the ones
Who have to get home
In the dark....

Ed....hmmmmm, watch out for those kids.  When they're dressed up they feel more powerful, even with a cantankerous old coot. (which I happen to know you're not).  

BOO!

BOO-WAH-HA-HA-HA-HAH! *G*

NOW I know why those kids were running down the street, looking over their shoulders as they sprinted. *G* You just had to give them something to think about, right? *S*

A shivery delight to read... even though you lied. *G* I know for a fact... cantankerous old coot is not a phrase that describes you! *G*
