Fantasy And Fear
Halloween brings goblins and nightmare dreams:
mixed with candies, chuckles, and distant screams.
And costumed kids; chanting 'trick-or-treat,'
canvassing their neighborhood: street by street.
But for Christmas, it's the best time of year:
a festival of fantasy and fear.
Ghoulish getups attract both young and old:
and a treasure in treats fuels the bold.
When fairies and witches knock, late at night:
give them candy, or they'll give you a fright.
Teenage tricksters carry a bar of soap,
to scribble on windows: acting so dope.
Real monsters emerge after midnight:
stalking the shadows, avoiding any light.
Zombies and vampires emerge from fresh graves:
craving for brains and blood of foolish knaves.
Beware of demons that are on the loose:
upon their approach, you'd better vamoose.
Halloween lets evil spirits roam free:
some, much scarier, than they ought to be.
