The Halloween Collection

The house was bedecked in orange and black, the costumes all ready the candy all stacked. The children were anxious, eyes painted and masked. The ghosts came floating, I was aghast. From all different directions, they came screeching past. So loud and so quick ! They came at me so fast ! I wanted to run, to get away from it all ! But it was only the children, from the Halloween Ball. + The ghosts and the goblins are running the show. The trickers and treaters are here now you know. The mystery of darkness, the howl of the night. The shroud of ghoulishness causes the fright. The harvest of souls out of the tomb, Out of the darkness, out of the womb. All Hallows Eve on the horizon. Nightfall, night watch, how surprising ! Pumpkins aglow, witches alight. Bats fly by, what a spooky sight ! Spiders and webs and monsters and such, I bet you couldn't tell that I like Halloween very much !
