Happiest Halloween Halifax Ever Had

The governor galloped toward the gallows
Goblins, ghosts, ghouls gathering in the hallows.
Witches and warlocks wandered in with the weather.
Halloween hurried and harried, hawking heady heather.
Jackpot jack-o-lanterns jabbered with a jubilant jab.
Harboring happiest Halloween Halifax ever had.
Dapper debonair devils danced in dubious delight.
Freaky frightening flesh-eaters were a most frightening sight.
We wee wondrous wanderers were wickedly scared.
An adventurous enlightening Halloween party by adults who all cared.

This is exceptionally fine, Caren, especially the rhymes and couplet form. I also loved that it held together as a story, i.e. "happiest Halloween Halifax ever had." Good writing.
