A Faint Glow

No other Fall night compares to an eerie Halloween night, see a strange gleam in that moon tranversed by shadows; all spirits appear and roam the unlit streets to hide their sight... I dare not venture outside, I am very safe behind bright windows! Frightening eyes stare, they are not eyes of humans: beware when they blink; be very watchful...let nobody smother you with their sweet laughter, behind those masks are spooky faces, although their costumes are sleek; look up, night becomes darker! Clouds hide the moon's glare while owls scatter! Phantoms grin at humble Snowhite, but cheer at Dracula showing his red teeth, no armored knight frightens them, but crosses on his shield make them fall; saints march to subdue skeletons rising from the gruesome graves underneath; they recite prayers with Latin words that have the power to intimidate them all! Many are superstitious and still celebrate Halloween too enticed by its thrill, they turn themselves into demons, not realizing that they help darkness grow; others refuse to join them in their display of evil that causes trembling and chill; oh, fearful moon don't hide anymore: your light is needed more than a faint glow!
