Cornucopia

A cornucopia of sweets 
 For those who trick or treat
 An abundance of ghouls out there
 To give us all a scare

 Thanksgiving gives us feasts aplenty
 With delicious ham and turkey
 

 Christmas gifts abound
  beneath the Christmas tree
  Santa comes to town!

Oh, I like how you took the fast form route on this one. I did too and I liked what I came up with (it's not posted yet.) I especially liked your first stanza.
