Notes About The Poem

Halloween Hope

Halloween often brings out
The alien, vampires and goblins
Who crave to suck your blood
Feasting on your heart’s hope
With diabolical plans for more
Trickery than treats, leaving
You paralyzed by the abduction
Of your joy and gentle promise
Which keeps you feeling certain
That love always wins in the end!
This is a cautionary reminder
That evil is the devil’s pleasure,
Leaving you a little less blissful!









Words Used: alien, blood, cautionary, vampires, trickery, abduction, paralyzed, Halloween, feasting, diabolical

Panagiota Romios October 18, 2020 at 2:16 PM This is an unusual poem, expressing the diabical aspects for sure. Halloween seems to drop in popularity every year. Mpcalifornia is not allowing it? But knowing Californians, many will blow it off. Evil folks are around all year, no? I see them each day on TV terrifying us I don't like it, I turn them off..))) Pangie xx
