Mild Fright
Skull and crossbones bag
Filled with delicious candy
Sitting on the porch
Where orange wreath lies on door
Looks inviting to the young
Decorations sit
Abounding the well-lit porch
Carved smiling pumpkins
And spider webbing around
And small orange lights on fence
Not very scary
As young children run about
Simply beautiful
This concoction of delight
Bringing around a mild fright
Russell Sivey
