Halloween Poem # 15....The Old Cemetery...For Paula's Challenge

I would cut through the old cemetery But this is Halloween night Don't want to wake anyone up That would really give me a fright! I've heard the place is haunted Don't want to take that chance So I will take the long way around In this special circumstance But looking over my shoulder I see a disturbing sight Bodies rising up from their graves Scuttling about in the moonlight And now they're coming after me I've got nowhere to run My short legs don't pump fast enough Wishing I had a gun Glancing back I hear them there They're moaning and screaming at me As I cut through the darkened plots I can barely even see Help me someone-they're lurching towards me I'm running as fast as I can When suddenly I find myself Right back where I began In front of the old cemetery again Where are those undead now? Hope they went back to their graves Phew! I saved myself somehow!
