Russell Sivey Poet Ottava rima

Anticipating Halloween

She yells, ‘Happy Halloween’ to us all
With a wry grin she knows her evil plans
Her pumpkins lit within her beck and call
They smile evilly like all pumpkins can
The spirits in the jack-o-lanterns brawl
Ready for pouncing all throughout the land
Between the two they know their dour disguise
Will deceive all those with great weary eyes

Russell Sivey

Demetrios Trifiatis October 7, 2013 at 11:18 AM Rightly, Mystic Rose, has declared you my friend, Russell, the king of Halloween. To her declaration I added that you are the KING OF KINGS OF Halloween! I think no-one will ever dare to dispute the title! Marvelous!

Poet Tacito October 7, 2013 at 8:52 AM I do the same thing whenever somebody cuts me in line at a Wendys or Chik-Fil-A. I want my food. If you cut me, you will be pounced upon. Awesome little tale here! I know you're excited. :)
