An Innocent Childhood Memory

Children enchant the beat after knocking on doors, looking for handouts, score trick or treat. October chill. Warm village firehouse parade pours out thrills — a fright of ghosts; abhors light. Children enchant the beat. Warm village firehouse parade pours light. 8/25/2020 Mohan Chutani’s Let's Minichu on an innocent childhood memory (Minichu Form)

I am saying to myself now, "I am so glad I did not go with a Halloween theme for this contest" because you nailed it.

This one really works for me. Love your stylistic devices and this one moves. Whoosh, and it'll be Halloween again. ~ Pumpkins and Poesy, Gershon

'Children enchant the beat' - has a pulse in it.! I can see the sheet strewn, paint faced hopefuls and feel the vibe of cooling evenings. A hard form to depict a scene in. I applaud you for it.
