A Different Light

Bats and snakes, make no mistakes 
                                 This girl loves them all
Spider fashion is her passion
                               Set by things that crawl

Of the dead, a skull is said
                                  To captivate her mind
Ravens black to wrap her back 
                                 This shirt, she will find

Halloween will make the scene
                                    Each day of the year
Lizards glee her Christmas tree
                                     This girl has no fear

Bats and snakes her fancy takes
                   While dancing through the night
Mistress Dark, one may remark
                                Or just a different light
