Happy Halloween!

 
Trick? or Treat?
 
Barely had the ole sun set to the western sky
Purple dusk shadows creeped slowly longer by
 
Wind-chased leaves pushed yon cemetery gate
Creaking rusty hinges clarion wraiths to spooky fate
 
Nighttime falls overrun with ghouls and goblins
A one legged pumpkin tries to escape hobbblin’
 
 Yellow moon lights white-eyed owl a black skeleton tree
Dracula, the Wolf man, monster Frankenstein escape free
 
Little masquerade-urchins scream and pray for high noon
Night-winds moan as clouds shroud alabaster pale full moon
 
A group of five costumed “darling” kids approach my front door
In “Freddie Krueger” mask with fiery chain saw I’ll settle a score
 
Jumping from the bushes I yell and rev up the loud saw
Press remote button, make crow on my shoulder “Caw!”
 
Four? “chicken”-children run away screaming a death card
One outfit-ed “Ninja Turtle” kicked ole bully-Freddie hard
 
As the chainsaw monster went down in excruciating pain
Karate-Ninja kicker stole all the sweet candy for his own gain
 
Severely injured monster crawled slowly into the house
Doctored his injury---Now he sounds like “Mickey Mouse”
 
Beware! Pale scare-y ghosts “Trick or Treat” Halloween eve
Fill their bags with “Goodies”; Pray! They peaceful---Leave!
