A scientist by the name of Mulqueen
Wanted to create a Patrick's day scene
Some borax he ignited
The Irish were excited 
When over town he sent clouds of bright green.

The crowds called an encore they did insist
Mulqueen quite drunk now he couldn't resist
To liven up the party
Mixed...

Ghost Buster’s Eve
‘Tis the time
to shoot slime.

Adults Only Costume Party
Sex kittens prance.
Sultry nurses dance.

Party Food
Served eyeball soup
and goopity goop

A Bobbing Good Time?
Apple I get;
face sopping wet!

House of Creeps
The chainsaw guy
made me cry

A-Maze-ing Fright
Lost girl walks
where corn stalks

Jack O’Lantern Greeters
Bright as torches,
pumpkins on porches.

Night of Royals

THE BULL
His regular emissions
Worthy of politicians

THE ANT
To the anteater
Nothing is sweeter

THE SLOTH
Feel his chagrin
Labelled deadly sin

THE TURKEY
With justified reason
Deplores festive season

THE EEL
Mobile on belly
Recumbent in jelly

THE CAMEL
Far from pretty
Designed by committee

THE HIPPO
A chubby figure
Mouth even bigger 
 
THE RHINO
His muzzle excrescence
Prescribed for tumescence

Autumn
Chilled breezes blow.
Warm firesides glow.

Pumpkins
Orange and round
Litter the ground.

Skies
Hold November rains.
Soak gentle plains.

Maple Trees
Dress in vermillion.
It’s autumn’s cotillion.

Children 
Wear shiny costumes.
Huge harvest moons.

Turkeys
Many to die.
Hear them cry.

Sometime last night, resting
inside of my home
I heard a voice singing(?!)
I was not alone

Not sure what to do
I just tried to ignore...
But he went on for hours
in unwelcome encore

Oh, that freaky falsetto 
went on for so long
in a shrill, shrieking, trembling
annoying song

That at last, I...

Heaven's spotlight shines

Racer
Flat out speed
Hot blooded steed

  Pacer
Speed walking race
With unmatched grace

  Steeplechaser 
Fearless full fledge
Ace over hedge

  Dressage
Arabesques on display
The equestrian ballet

  Draft
Flowing feathered heels
Beer on wheels

  Trail
Rent the power
By the hour

Comfortable Walking Shoes
Tattered, dusty soles
Complete with holes

Brisk Weather
Summer heat adjourns
Autumn wind churns

Beware Flying Objects
Acorn hits head
(Better than lead!)

Washed Out Trail
Moist air foggy
Makes ground soggy

Watch Your Step 
Trip on stump
Foot sports lump

Evening Falls
Better hustle home
Lose map? Roam

Dinner Bell Rings
Follow that sound
Find home ground

There is a Carol King.
Sung a beautiful tune.
Others too composed.
Listen to her song.
Spun by Gods truth.
Enriched so thru and thru.
So who is who?
Avoid  "catch 22".
"Child Of Mine".
Kings are wonderful.
Birth to death.
End to beginning.
Dear God some more....

Man Walks into Police Station
Old bag’s head.
“Cheater,” he said.

Fruity Find From Costa Rica
Pineapple fruit fake.
Lucky cocaine break.

Roll Out The Barrels
Beer kegs crash
In highway bash.

Never Turn Back
See Newlyweds smile.
Sea’s roguish guile.

Unusual Sighting
Missouri couple surveyed
Marsupial youth escapade.

Seaside Sign - Oldest Drawing
Travel in time?
A hashtag paradigm

Itchy Palms
Gold that shone
Is now gone

Yellow at heart
By fear stricken
Acts the chicken

Roadrunner
Have the ability
To show agility

Dream Catcher
I was told
To be bold

The Grim Reaper
Without a face
Dictates the pace

Let sleeping dogs lie
I slept instead
Beside the bed
