Wendy Watson Poet Limerick

A Bloodcurdling Moment

One dark eerie Halloween night,
Count Dracula gave me a fright.
His pointed teeth gleamed,
I bolted and screamed,
When he asked me out for a bite!

Thank you for the honour of first place, Tania. Once I'd chosen my theme, I tried to think of a witty idiomatic last line and went from there. I'm really glad you found it amusing.
