Orange Glow

Those cold days Of the mid-fall months Halloween comes The orange glow of lights Placed inside Jack-O-Lanterns Trick or treaters Bundled up for the night Desiring candy Lanterns light up The streets this night Giving orange light There seems to be fear tonight Where All Hollows Eve presents Costumes frighten A great many passersby Come late October
