Around the Corner

Just around the corner, 
Halloween will be here.
Witches and goblins 
chasing you everywhere. 
Ghosts sneaking upon you, scaring
the ebeegbees out of you, too.

Pumpkins smashed along the roads
just missing those rotten toads.
Toilet paper thrown in the trees
paint smeared on mailboxes they see.

Just as you're ready to go to bed
the ghost begins to rattle the chains
definitely no sleep you will gain.
