"halloween Babes"

“Halloween Babes”

Innocent Angels
Prowl darken streets, seek sweet treats
Human evil seeks…

This pure Love of heart
Unaware what evil lurks
In human dark souls…

Just another child
Bites the dust of human lust’s
Illusions of ghouls…

For Contest: Halloween Haiku
In Honor of : Linda-Marie Sweetheart of P.S.

It has always amazed me how the "ghouls" prey on young innocents on Halloween. It take a dark soul indeed to tamper with treats and give mean-spirited tricks on Halloween. Even when I was a child, mom would not let me eat any candy that wasn't fully in its original wrapper. Halloween was still a fun event for youngsters, but the "innocent angels" could not comprehend the evil in men's hearts. Powerful haiku series, dear friend, and I wish you well in the contest. Love, Carolyn

Great writing, John. These halloween joy seekers are certainly more at risk from humans than from ghosts and goblins. Great reminder to thoughtless parents. Love, Joyce
