Dreams of Halloween

Dreams of Halloween

Like a shadow moving in the darkness…
It is something seldom seen.
A total act of malevolence,
as monsters haunt your dreams…
As the sun goes down 
before tonight’s full Moon. 
A low rolling fog spread
feelings of foreboding and doom.
Ghouls and Goblins step out of the gloom,
Looking to frighten little children in costume. 
Evil spirits celebrate their tormented dreams.
Of what can only be. 
Halloween!!  All hallows eve!!
From nightmare to nightmare
and things that go bump in the night.
You have an uneasy feeling 
like somethings just not right.
Looking around you stop to check.
Feeling the hairs stand up on the back you neck.
A cold chill from your sixth sense gives you a freight.
As you fall victim to a Vampires bite.
People hear your blood curdling screams!
As you desperately try to run 
from this tormented dream.
Tripping over a rotted corps
You fall into an empty grave.
As you struggle to get out,
You become the sandman’s slave.
Count Dracula summons you,
Because once upon a time.
You were brave.
From nightmare to nightmare
now night of the living dead.
You’re one of the Zombies  
waiting in the darkness 
to crack open somebody’s head.
As you step from the shadows
grabbing victims right off the street. 
Eating their blood dripping brains 
makes feel complete.
A feeling you’ve known all too well,
as Witches cast their powerful spell.
Like a shadow moving in the darkness.
It is something seldom seen.
A total act of malevolence,
as monsters haunt your dreams.
This,  Will never be complete,
unless innocent little children wearing costumes, 
Go door to door yelling.  Trick!! or treat!!
