Haunted Woods

Haunted woods with massive trees Beckoned at once, naughty three Eleven, twelve and thirteen An awesome aged all-boys team Boy of thirteen was on the lead Asked the youngest to gain quick speed 'To Nail three shirts to biggest tree' Was the game of Halloween glee As three boys rushed past large shrub Wind whistled with fearsome drub Three boys ran like floating ghosts Their shirts got stuck in thorn posts All three were painted red here and there By thorns, thistles, stumbles of nice share Lost in haunted woods for quite a while Three boys returned home in classic style

This sounds scary and humorous at the same time. Boys of that age are so adventurous. Glad they came back home, though bruised but without being in danger.
