A Haunted Hayride Pantoum- Edited For Typos

Do you enjoy this haunted ride with me?
I hope it’s nice and comfy on the hay.
So many spooky things there are to see.
It’s more fun than a one-horse open sleigh!

I hope it’s nice and comfy on the hay.
It’s breezy, but I think it feels just right -
It's more fun than a one-horse open sleigh!
Just hold on tight to me this night of fright.

It’s breezy, but I think it feels just right.
What’s that? The Headless Horseman’s coming near?
Just hold on tight to me this night of fright.
Afterwards, more ghoulies will soon appear.

What’s that? The Headless Horseman’s coming near?
You tremble, and I love your snuggling close!
Afterwards, more ghoulies will soon appear.
Oh, the vampire dripping with blood is gross!

You tremble, and I love your snuggling close.
You can snuggle closer. Don’t even peek.
Oh, the vampire dripping with blood is gross.
Aha! A little peek I saw you sneak.

You can snuggle closer. Don’t even peek.
Together we can laugh and show no fear.
Aha, a little peek I saw you sneak.
I think you kind of like it being here!

Together we can laugh and show no fear.
So many spooky things there are to see.
I think you kind of like it being here.
Do you enjoy this haunted ride with me?

Sara Kendrick September 17, 2022 at 3:57 AM Ahhh!!! I hope they don't come close enough to touch because that is the worst. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by. Sara

Victor Buhagiar September 16, 2022 at 2:14 AM I already commented. Hopefully you do not have hay fever. A lovely Panton.

Michael Tor September 15, 2022 at 5:59 PM Clever Andrea and cute. A pleasure to read... God bless you...

Linda Alice Fowler September 15, 2022 at 12:00 PM Clever, spooky, and fun Andrea! Linda

Victor Buhagiar September 15, 2022 at 6:56 AM I did not tremble reading your spooky poem. Quite long. Did you find it easy too jumble the lines as required. Best for a win. Andrea Dietrich September 15, 2022 at 4:10 PM I did not want it to be long but to get the idea across of a guy wanting his girl to snuggle with him, I had to do it the way I did it It was not meant to be scary since Pantoum hardly gives you a framework to work on scariness . It was just to show two people on a date.
