Francine Roberts Poet Rhyme

Spooky Season

It's the spooky season
Just before Halloween.
All our favourite horror movies
Are waiting to be seen.

Each night is a fright fest
For those of us who like a scare.
Watch them with the lights out,
That is, if you dare.

There are zombies and psychos,
Werewolves and vampires.
A huge assortment by Stephen King,
Like Drew Barrymore starting fires.

Some are old, in black and white.
Some are newly released.
Some are from other planets.
Some are the walking deceased.

Yes, it's the spooky season
And each channel has it's share
Of our best loved horror movies
To give us all a scare.

Joyce Johnson October 1, 2011 at 1:27 PM Why the fascination with the macabre? Not me. I live alone. Congratulations on your win. Love, Joyce

Robert Pettit January 11, 2011 at 10:42 PM I can just see Boris Karloff, Bela Lugosi, Vincent Price, et al up on the screen. You have described everything poetically well in this offering.

Jancarl Campi November 1, 2010 at 3:53 PM this was a fun read. I am not a fan of Halloween. All of those ghost and goblins milling about. I do enjoy a good scary movie and I am leery of things that bump me in the night.

Caryl Muzzey October 31, 2010 at 9:53 AM A great entry with fantastic visuals for the contest. I enjoyed the read. Caryl

John Freeman October 30, 2010 at 3:31 PM Halloween is a spooky time Francine, but one the children certainly enjoy. I remember I always did when I was a child. The candy was the thing that I liked, as we didn't get much when my sisters and I were children. Agape, Moses

Carolyn Devonshire October 30, 2010 at 4:45 AM So true, Francine! Even some TV series like NCIS have been showing episodes related to Halloween. I think I have seen enough werewolves and vampires, though, so these movies I avoid. Great write for Halloween! Love, Carolyn
