Potpourri Ghosts- Contest

Potpourri Ghosts Knock and a bang and a yell Wake up to the call of the Halloween Ghosts! My girls all in their teens dressed as witches with brooms cried loud with friends Fill our decorated baskets with treats The night is long and All our ancestors souls are hungry Fill our decorated baskets with treats Tonight they want their grandest feast Or they'll make your quivering hearts bleed In the rivers of Hades! A potpourri of sizes In a masquerade planned Over a month or two Loudly order all. My heart yearns for the fulfilment of their impish desires and silently pray Pull up the blinders of your windows You sleepy friendly neighbours Lookout at all these angelic pumpkin heads Wendy Witches, green goblins, cutest devils Bold batmen religiously donning costumes Ripping apart souls of normal wear. Thus having tricked you They joyously whisper at having Spelt fear in the hearts of their muscled uncles and stern aunts Proudly these little creepers Jest pretending to be nocturnal predators Of their elders hiding their uncontrolled smiles Behind their guises of Halloween Night Gamble baskety treats or a night to be tricked. FIFTH The October 24, 2015 Contest: Happy Halloween Sponsor: Kelly Deschler
