Halloween Costume

I'm not so very evolved you see
For Halloween this is what I'll be
Dressed in brown from head to knee
With huge red lips for all to see

Big white socks on hands and feet
Eyes painted black look so neat
Red yarn  top-not flopping down
And tail a'dragging on the ground

No darned banana for this beast
Candy corn my favorite  feast
A Sock Monkey doesn't seem so scary
Perhaps I'll attack my friend Larry

Apologies once more to Larry Belt...

How much more fun Halloween was, (at least I think so)....to create those old costumes from yesterday....... so much more memorable than the store-bought variety that all look alike today! Great poem, Barbara!!
