Hi Jan, Halloween is lately becoming a big thing in South Africa also. Shame Peter tripped,, but your kind heart felt sorry for him and gave him more candy. A warm, heartfelt poem on on a day that is thought to be dark! Great verse, xoxo Jennifer.

What a surprise! I thought "Jack o'lantern" originated from gas and thought that would put the wind up your sails ….. Good luck! Aloha! Rico

What a kind nature you have to help little Peter fulfill his candy quota, Jan! So glad Halloween appears to be celebrated in Europe as well as the U.S. Enjoyed your rhyme! Best wishes in the contest. Hugs, Carolyn PS- I'm giving out little bags of goldfish crackers this year. Not quite as much sugar, so I hope the children like them.
