Halloween Moon

Halloween moon shines bright
Along the dark streets at night
Little kids dressed as ghosts and goblins
Light up dark walkways and paths
Owls and black cats eerily decorate
Windowsills under orange mini lights
Everyone is out searching for candy
Even the grown pranksters are out for a
Night of fun filled laughter and pranks

Moonlight also casts shadows
On forgotten cemetery gravestones
Only to awaken sleeping spirits, but
No evil ones will be lurking tonight

That was an excellent idea to use acrostic form here! It flows seamlessly. A question for you at Soupmail.
