About This Poem

Our Halloween

Wet and slippery as can be


I fell and hurt my little knee


These leaves a menace to all


Our treats and us down we fall


Wet and cold now where is our candy

    Nice story line, the words don't flow for me, I've tried it about 10 times and I can't get it to limerick in my head, think the syllable count on the last line is out by one

    I came back and read this and I agree. I need to work on it. Thank you for your truthful feelings on this one.

    Carol; this is cute. Here where I live - it is usually hot, once in a while it might get a little cold. I dress up as a clown, or strawberry Shortcake and pass out candy. Have a great day. Lucilla

    An interesting poem. I do not like or believe in "Trick or treat" Guess I am really an old grump. I do like Thanksgiving and Christmas and Birthdays and babies, puppies, kittens,and ladies of the night. Guess I am not all that bad, just old.

    Hope that fall was not a hurtful one. I do not like that time of year and would rather just buy the kids candy and not have them go out. It is usually cold and snow with slippery walks. The grand kids just go to folks they know because grandma buys a box of chips and a box of chocolates so treats last a long time.love phyl
