All Hallow's Eve the ghouls entreat.
All Hallow's Eve the ghouls entreat,
"What follows leave to fools my sweet,"
"What follows leave to fools my sweet!"
What follows sweet all Hallow's Eve
my ghouls entreat the fools to leave!

Lost prowl this region 'neath dark sky.
lost prowl this region 'neath dark sky,
and howl some legion's haunting cry,
and howl some legion's haunting cry.
Some legion's dark ,'neath lost sky prowl
and haunting region , cry this howl!

"Begone all those who worship day!"
"Begone all those who worship day!"
"This night is our's with which to play!"
"This night is our's with which to play!"
"Worship is gone , be those to day,
all who , with which this night , our's play!"

"Worship those ghouls this night my sweet,
and howl this dark region , entreat
all fools who play 'neath legion's sky
begone!, to prowl with haunting cry
all which is our's , what follows leave,
lost to the day , some Hallow's Eve!

Doc, I am, I must admit, dismayed...but I will NOT go quietly....lol..I'm thinking, there must be a way....to make this damned paradelle make sense?  Would ya believe, the computer ate my homework? (Don't.)  

Okay...but...it's not my forte'...I just want it to end up making sense TO ME.

so here I go, back to paper, and a good gel pen...

serenity,
Darn, in reviewing this I see I never replied to your post. Simply inexcusable !Thank you ! Can't afford to offend anyone , I'm already in dutch with the teach ( something about adding and subtracting words willy-nilly). My apologies , and good luck on your assignment.

Aha... The good Doc redeems himself...

Check it out, you guys... This one has an expanded number of words - The more you use, the more difficult it becomes - and Doc's done a fine job of it.

By the way - He's also used a fixed rhyme scheme... and set his words to iambic tetrameter... and took the liberty of playing with his word structure (Begone = be + gone)...

This one's GOOD.....
