Halloween Abcedarian 2023

amber skies announce autumn black bats and black cats costumes line the sidewalks Dracula climbs out of his crypt elves, faeries and brownies dance the streets Freaks are getting on their freak Ghostly ghouls and goblins chase princesses Halloween parade is in rare gear Ideal night for trick-or-treat Jack-o-lanterns proudly sit Knives focus in on the pretty ones at hand Leave some candy for me! Says my aunt Fran Monsters appear out of the October mist Noisy neighbors watch from inside their house Orange and black crepe paper in store windows Pumpkin pie with whipped cream is in my frig ***** creatures zigzag in and out of walkers rambunctious teenagers scare the little ones spidery webs are dangling from many porches trick-or-treat, smell my feet, give me something good to eat! Under the bridge scary ghost stories are being told Vim and vigor oozes out of every Captain America five-year-old Witches cackle as their green faces wander the streets ‘xtravagant costumes try to one-up the rest of us Yellow-eyed cats miss nothing zinging in and out are goblins carrying large sacks
