The Mouse of Halloween

It was a Halloween moon so what did I do?
I went to a big "Haunted House".
''Nothing will scare me", thought I in my pride...
A BIG MAN IN...out came a mouse.

Very humorous Dan. I know what your saying. I've seen it from the other side. I ran a haunted house for several years when I was younger.

So funny, fear with 'morph' you! Very clever, Dan ... (I hope you entered the contest) ... CayCay

No, don't go back in that house! No contest can alter how clever your thought is or that my box above has a typo (will not with). Clever is always creative ... CayCay
