Poem
Christmas has it's candy canes and chocolate Santa Claus doll Easter with it's Peeps and jelly bird eggs can get a little dull But do you recall the greatest candy Holiday of all... Through the dark of night guided by a dim flashlight going house to house with an earnest plea As your hand clutches your treasured bag disguised and masked to fool all Haunted by witches goblins ghouls monsters, pirates and a pink fairy, you step up to each door and knock As it creeps open an over joyful adult in an ill fitting costume waits for your magic chant of "Trick or Treat" before they add to your heavy bag, bursting with candies you eagerly flee to the next houses garnished with morbid and spooky decorations to add to your sweet booty. Finally your inner time clock tells you to weave your way home through the darken street crowded with costume children and parents and the dreaded teenager lurking to spot a stray and steal their candy But you had a plan route and made it home safe into your locked room upon your bed you spill forth the bounty of a nights loot Root beer barrels and candy corn circus peanuts and licorice give to mom and dad For you got a Whopper and Reese cups a Kit Kat or two Mike and Ike and good ole Baby Ruth Snickers, Heaths and Junior Mints What a Pay Day looks like a 100 Grand Twizzlers and Skittles and Lemon Heads Starburst and tootsie rolls overflow your bed Nestle Crunch and Krackle and a 3 Musketeers Hershey Kisses and Sweet Tarts to share Wax candies and Milk Duds and jelly beans Airheads with jawbreakers makes you scream Snickers, Butterfingers and Lolli pops Twixs and Milky Ways and even a box of Dots Smarties and Zeros a Hot Tamale or two Jolly Ranchers and Chuckles and Sour Patch Kids rude Blow Pops, Runts, Nerds Laffy Taffy on my bed M&M's, Stripes gum and a Mr. Goodbar The greatest Halloween haul by far So many gums and jellies and chews chocolates, marshmallows and gummy bears too Halloween a sugar treat for every dentist and kid That night I slept with my candy in my bed.
