October Is Coming

October is coming
Maybe sooner than expected
Children are getting their costumes
Parents are getting candy
And Dad is eating half of it
Pumpkin spice will be long gone
Pumpkin pie will be the new thing
For those of you old enough to remember
Maybe Snoopy will find his target
And the Great Pumpkin will rise again
So will the dead and their spirits
Led into the open by a million bats
Making it the perfect night 
To have a good night of trick or treat
