Spooky the Night
Spooky the night;
Ghosts are even contrite
Continually drifting round the hound.
Pumpkins have found
A dark body to walk them around
While monsters walk the streets.
The pounding of the brisk wind beats.
Frighten Cuckoo bird under a nightshade hood.
Red eyes hover round the woods.
Bats fly round, waking the dead.
Soil moves, while coffins slowly open,
Close, and reopen,
Disturbing the living dead,
Their shaking hands with dread.
Come now.
Come now.
There is extra room.
The witch on the broom
Is waiting for her groom
As spiders thread
A large web for their bed.
