Halloween Tree

The hallowed hollow tree in October was excruciatingly alive. There were apartments that numbered more than twenty-five. There were owls and squirrels, rabbits, voles, and moles too. Dressed in Halloween garb, challenging each duo to a boo. Elaborate costumes were put on the young and the old. Some were dressed subtly, others outrageously bold. Dancing and partying went on in the hallowed tree tonight. The tree was as happy as it had ever been on an October night.

I like this one a lot, Caren. I've always wondered why we do not celebrate Halloween by putting up a "hallowed tree." Seems more appropriate to me than a Christmas tree, actually.
