Notes About The Poem

Halloween Trick or Treats

full moon on hallow's eve
ghosts and goblins
will be trick or treating
for bags and bags of candy
toffee apples on sticks
enough sweets to rot their teeth

children roam the streets
as costumed munchkins
looking for yummy treats
darkness filled with characters
older kids dressed up wild
ranging from devils to angels

spooky pumpkins
carved with care
eerie sounds from coffins
in the dead of night
creaking doors and then
the graveyard comes to life
