Halloween Magic

Red juicy apples lying across 
round pumpkin fields
terrifying the scavengers

Black yowls 
dusting up the corn rows
Softening up the cats

Hallows Eve
Waiting around the corner
Eager to shake up the spiders

Witches 
Stirring October’s brew
In apple tree cauldron

Trick—or-Treaters
tromping from house to house
scared of nothing

Halloween Magic

I love autumn; maybe not as much as I love spring but I love the "turning" seasons the best.

"shake up the spiders" I love spiders. This was such a fun write. Excellent silliness at its very best. Ann

Thank you Ann. This is my first week at two schools. I am at my absolute most silly this week.
