Once Upon a Halloween Day

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary, I came to the conclusion that something tonight wasn’t quite right, I peered into the dark and everything just turned more creepy and scary, And outside appeared a huge full moon~ I stood frozen terrified in this night. And I came to the conclusion that something tonight wasn’t quite right, My heart was just pounding and thumping upon my rickety rib cage, And right straight among a circle of trees there was a fierce sparkle of light Vampires and monsters, and witches flying in brooms sped fast and past the gate. My heart was just pounding and thumping upon my rickety rib cage, I peered into the dark and everything just turned more creepy and scary, Vampires and monsters, and witches flying in brooms sped fast and past the gate, Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary.
