hallowe'en the evening came when mischevious spirits were to play yet the moon rose on the horizon beyond the suspicion of safety little children must hide inside white sheets and dark masks to remain alive begging for sweetness inside their baskets from strangers the good mannerisms of the elderly to remain indoors secured from the witches and demons laughing outside those cowards remain unstained from their own blood buried beneath the soil their children run across the bridges into the darkness ahead unknowing that night can bring sacrifice but these saints and sinners playing in the cold air together live and die for this hallow evening children laughing ghosts chanting happiness dwells in the fright yet, what of the sun in the 'morrow when fate decides who fooled among the dead the spirits to leave the dawn without nothing in their baskets to feast upon but the memories of the children allowing their souls to play again *in this, I give you only what I believe |

Lots of twists and turns in here goblins and spirits dancing around while lurking in the dark does terror abound and yet we must let the little ones play the same game we used to play on hallowe'en day Can you tell I liked your poem? It is very well written. |
