In a celebration of death and fright, goblins gather outside the pale moonlight. For Jack-o-lanterns bathed in candlelight morph into orange gargoyles at twilight. And vampires and witches, masters of flight, fly low in the shadows, just out of sight. While gruesome ghouls appear a ghostly white, werewolves baring their fangs threaten to bite. And though young trick-or-treaters hug Mom tight, teenagers are primed to put up a fight. And Ghostbusters start hunting ghosts to smite, checking haunted houses; Halloween night.

"...celebration of death and fright,..." sums up Halloween alright. I wonder how many people know how and why the celebration started. Love your mono rhyme Emile. Congratulations on your win! Linda

Halloween is a favorite holiday for me, as well. I even "dress up" sometimes as well. LOL
