As the Misty Moon Rides High

The corn maze full in October, “As the misty moon rides high.” Nighttime makes occasion sober, Still laughter lingers, is not shy. Headless, the hopeful, scans the crowd. The high and mighty on his list. With black stallion, his shrieking loud. Like judge’s gavel shakes his fist. One by one the kids are captured. A pronouncement made with thumb thrust. They share the hijinks, enraptured. Price worth ticket - fear was robust!
