A Halloween Limerick

This years Halloween its a tedious task because of the virus, we all need a mask be safe not sorry says the man, John Tory keep your distance, don't drink from a flask the children are longing to participate this I know cover mouth and nose, and join the evening tow demonstrate be a template wear a mask while shelling out get into the flow Halloween has been a fav since I was a little waif kids will be kids, its up to us to keep them safe keep an eye if asked why ? tell them its essential, just for a period of grace. A good little habit for all that they treasure and its up to them if they want the pleasure be cautious not raucous my children, have fun but remain in your measure. October 15, 2020

I believe it will be Caren, in Montreal people are building long chutes to drop the candy in, cuz the government says masks are not enough you need 6 ft distance, I don`t know what will come of it that day. We need patience dear friend. lots of it.

Hi my lovely new friend, this will be a new experience for people in America celebrating Halloween. Especially for the children who had so much freedom last year and all the years before trick a treating the neighborhood. Loved you poem and some real common sense advise which should be taken to heart and not ignored. Hug and blessing Pixie Dust - Jennifer.

Dear Jennifer, my heart goes out to all the children, but I do believe our first responsibility is to keep them safe from harm. I think we need to be cautious, it will be a long time before we will be mask free, my prayers are out there for the world, stay well, my dear, thank you for being so gracious with your comment.

I don't know how my town will handle trick or treating - but sadly at my house we will have to put up a sign that says 'No candy' - because my hubby has a weak immune system from recovering from cancer, we can't risk it this year :(
