TRICK OR TREAT

The ghosts are here
And goblins there,
Those costumed people
Everywhere!

Say, "Trick or Treat"
They chant as one.
Just give it up,
Or be their FUN!

And who's afraid
Of a rotten egg?
I'd give 'em candy
When they beg.

'Cuz all they want
Is something sweet.
Relinquish all
Or YOU shall eat.

Brings back wonderful memories, of the candy by the front door, falling off of a neighbor's porch into the bushes, yes, I remember Halloweens, and many good times.

Ah ha, the haunted house of haunts, and those creature beings of the night; ghosts, goblins, skeletons, ghouls, see through peoples, peoples one can't see through, Frankenstickle, and his buddies, and it goes on, and on, and on. Oh Nan, by the way, don't look behind you!!!!!! hehehehehehehe

I'd kinda lost the mood when the beautiful pumpkin I'd planned to carve this weekend rotted and spewed pumpkin juice all over my kitchen (you talk about a mean TRICK! LOL) This poem and the great graphics restores a smile... Thanks!
