The Witches of Salem Come out in the thick of the harbor mist A Halloween treat that you can’t resist Come out tonight and we’ll have some fun The witches of Salem are on the run! Watch out for the smell of a witches brew It could be a treat that was meant for you Don’t turn back now - Don’t look behind Just follow the scent of the stewing brine We can’t turn around in the churning wind The footsteps behind us are closing in A witches brew could be our fate We’ll take the path through the graveyard gate A witch is afraid of the graveyard mist A Halloween venture we can’t resist There’s a voice of a sailor who whispers your doom For beside his bones lies an empty tomb Watch out for the voice of a graveyard ghoul He watches the path for an innocent fool Never look back at the path we’ve come The ghoul of the graveyard is on the run! Let’s walk on past the old “Phantom” ship On Halloween night into port it will slip The ghost of the vessel will sing you a song Come aboard, young lady, where you belong Just keep on walking and don’t look back His eyes and nose are hollow and black And never repeat the song he has sung For the ghost of the “Phantom” is on the run! Look out for the goblins and ghosts and ghouls! They beg for a treat when they trick the fools The witches of Salem are on the run! Six pitter pat feet that are just having fun!

Trick or Treat, Liz.. This is indeed a fantastic treat... I'm glad you're writing - and you did this one in ANAPESTIC meter - I love it - as always..  [This message has been edited by Nan (09-26-2002 08:47 AM).] |

Thanks, Nan, This one was inspired by all those old graveyards in New England and of course the mist, the mystical mist. I will never forget our days together at your home. Love ya Liz |

Liz, Nan took me to those graveyards and couldn't get me out! I loved them! I had never seen anyone dead that long LOL. This is so cute, printed it for Tori to read at school (she will say Gramma's friend wrote it.)  |

Liz, that was a wonderfully eerie Hallowe'en poem! It is a shame that more people didn't get to read it! I wish you could post it in Open! Very well done and very much enjoyed! Cackle, cackle   Linda |
