Sorry I didn't know the pages had changed colour. I thought it was another puter gremlin. You Don't Want To Go To The Devils' Ball This day, today, it's a strange one to be sure This night is the night. Ah! You want to know more? Well this day 'tis known as all hallows eve When strange tales are told or so I believe It's said that this night the dead can awaken And the souls of the wicked can be, and are taken This one night the witches won't sleep in their bed They'll take to the air on their broomsticks instead With shrieks and loud screams they will mass and fly To their witches hide-a-way across the blackened sky These witches familiars set up an almighty brawl As all things loathsome to their masters will crawl The dead will creep from their coffins this night And dance with the devil in the silver moonlight Those souls that are lost and seeking some release Will cry to each other begging and calling for peace The ghouls and the spooks will join in the throng Ready and able to wail and screech in their own song So this night whilst in your cosy bed you sleep Don't be tempted to rise and take even a small peek Those witches will know exactly who and what you do They'll swoop from on high, and they will capture you The dead as they dance will rattle their poor old bones And your soul, as it suffers, will most surely moan Just you listen to my friendly and very sage advice You really wouldn't wish to pay the Devils price For watching the dances of these creatures from hell The price of the ticket? Ah! It's your soul you'll sell So you just go back to sleep, don't you peep at all Trust me, you don't want to witness the Devils' ball Mushy Marsha (Don't worry I'll protect you!) Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Mushy, much easier to read, but still spooky. Kethry Growth demands a temporary surrender of security. Gail Sheehy |
