Halloween Humor.

Halloween's that time of year.
When ghosts and gobblins will appear.
From door to door they trick or treat.
So when their done they cold feet.
The kids don't care they have their candy.
While mom and dad break out the brandy.
For their the ones who feel the cold.
Which means one thing their getting old.
The kids drift off and fall asleep.
Now to the candy their parents creep.
Their favorite candy is what they seek.
There's no big harm to take a peek.
They never let this secret go.
But kids are smart and always know.

And they say I had some M&Ms and now they are gone? Did you get my candy? No! You must have dropped it out of your pumpkin or you already ate it...I am glad that I read this one this A.M. Sara
