Spookaroo Spookaroo Where Are You ?

Spookaroo where are you he yells while standing at the window his diaper is sagging and his witches hat is crooked and all askew The ghostees are busy tonight preparing candy for the big kids she says, and the sorcerers are chanting in the forest of doom But when are the Spookaroos coming, I don't see a think out there then he sticks a thump in his mouth and pops out his big blue eyes They are flying in the sky my love checking out the little children now let's put your costume on and shell out, remember no peeking He walks bow legged to his room and parts the curtains just a wee hoping to catch their attention, he bangs at the window with a shoe Spookaroo spookaroo where are you, I got gummy bears for you the witch's costume waits on the bed, he catches a cold Achoo! Mom lifts him up and runs to the den with a voice singing soft and low " they're a comin a comin, and they love naked bellies my son " Quick get your costume, hide your navel, the spookaroos are here toeing, he runs with his hands in the air screaming, no fair no fair !

Hah gummy bears made me smile, My son used to love those! What a creative write this is! Do you ever write anything bad? This is too good! I am all hyped for halloween! And the way you do storytelling and paint descriptive imagery is beyond impeccable! Absolutely love this one sweet rose! You are so gifted

felt like I was there and the little boy seemed cute...with saying spookaru, spookaru. I loved the little twist at the end. Have a pleasant Friday evening, Sara

Thank you for reading this humoristic story Victor, Halloween fascinates many children even today, but we need to be more cautious, these days, glad to see you here.
