Lumpy Oatmeal makes me Crazy!

0 posted 2006-10-29 03:40 PM


As dark clouds agitate, spiral and churn
Blood red eyes seek and peer through dead branches
Searching to satiate a hunger that boils and burns
While the wind wails terror’s tune

Bruised and broken creatures lurk just out of sight
Skulking silently in the chilled darkness, waiting
Yearning to begin the demonic hunt in Halloween night
Blackness is their camouflage

The moon teases as it flits from behind churning clouds
Fangs, moist with saliva, glint and beckon
Decay riddled-bodies under tattered death shrouds
Bones gently rattle like dead leaves

Hair-raising screams soar to saturate the dank air
The Creatures silently stalk among their prey
While humans remain blissfully unaware
Hurrying past dancing shadows

They recall stories once long forgotten
About Witches, Demons and Werewolves
Skeletons dressed in flesh that is long rotten
Tantalizing with new-found terror



Trick or Treaters beware
It is Halloween night
The greatest of dangers
Remain out of sight.

So the season is rapidly approaching us once again.  I'll never think of Halloween in the same way--it brought back thoughts of my son who was a night person and might be found roaming the graveyard dressed as the grim reaper.  Will greatly miss him at Halloween this year as he passed away on July 2, this year.

mice....

I'm sorry about the loss of your son.

I have a daughter, estranged, who is
also a "night person."

I will keep you in my prayers.

Ali...

isn't it wonderful to acknowledge all of
your aliases?

It's kind of a shock actually, darling Sunshine.  'aziza' was so long ago (it seems) and now when I read any poems from that time, I want to re-write them.

Love you,
A

I awake to the morning
No sign of distress.
The witches flew by
Without stopping I guess.  Joyce

They missed me too - don't get any trick or treaters or witches on broomsticks.
