Gobblin' Goblins

That blackie cat sat fattened 'neath the ol' pumpkin moon,

While the yummies in his tummy sang a hummy little tune,

No more twitchy, glitchy, witchy tails or mousey little feets,

For he'd gobbled all those goblins up as trick-or-treat eats!

Robert Lindley Date: 11/17/2019 7:48:00 AM Excellent Halloween poem my friend. As a young kid we had a huge back cat that was my favorite after my favorite dog. The cat was huge and our dogs were scared of it. A huge strange dog came in our yard and our black cat attacked it-- ran it away! Great poetry my friend...

Many thanks for your kindness, friend! :o)
