Premium Member Goblins' Dance
Solid cover of morn's damp dew
Looks frosty 'pon mown grass
Jets have traversed the eastern sky
Leaving white streaks where passed

The rising sun has cast some pink
There's sand 'pon the low clouds
A mysterious fog hides the hills
Where goblins gather in crowds  

They roast marshmallows in the...

Secret corners in the back

Waiting to eat me and you...

Witches and ghost goblins and ghouls
Tonight is your night
Go out and scare the fools

Tonight is your night to rule
Go out and spread the fright

Tonight is your night...

Premium Member When the Goblins Came To Town
Tears were flowing when the goblins came to town,
for delight do goblins take in making people cry.
They wreak havoc, bringing everybody down.

Goblins to each neighborhood assigned themselves.
They stirred up problems; people sobbed; They even made folks die
as clever goblins had enlisted help from evil elves.

Into...

Premium Member Ghouls and Goblins Draped In Snow, 1991
Alex, only 3-yrs. old; insisted I take her out in the blinding blizzard!
She knew which neighbors had candy!
Snow drifts were swirling over 3-ft. by now!
I told her "Alexandra, if you'll put a snowsuit over your costume,
i'll take you down to the corner and back, but...

Premium Member When Goblins Come
It’s nighttime when the goblins come
And whisper in my head
“Before you wake from dreamland, girl
Who is the next one dead?

When will the good days that you live
Take on a ghastly turn?
It's coming sooner than you think
the time when dreams will burn.

You lie in bed of...

Premium Member Ghosts and Goblins
Tonight, I swear, way up in the sky
    I saw three cackling witches fly by

  And then down here on the ground
    Why, ghosts, goblins and skeletons
       all rattling around

  And...

King of the Goblins
He's the King of the goblins and should you displease
He'll pickle your eyebrows and eat them with cheese
Or cut you to pieces then boil your head
And mop up the gravy with slices of bread
But should you avoid this nobles displeasure
He will show you his strong...

Premium Member Beware the Goblins
Beware the goblins that hang out with gloom,
That send little children screaming in fright
The werewolves that spell a sudden doom.

Sudden noises like mushroom clouds boom
At your front door on Halloween night,
Beware the goblins that hang out with gloom.

Likely the little witches will carry their broom
They...

Premium Member The Spooks Family Halloween Party
It was quite a party at the old Spooks house,
to a spooktactular Samba they bobbed and bounced.
with skeletons banging their big ox-bone drums,
and the pumpkins all sang as the witches hummed.

Black cats did dine on tuna eyeball stew;
wicked Wilma brought her green bat-wing brew.
In the...

That Ancient Darkside of All Hallows’ Eve Past

As in the fabled medieval times of centuries in the deep past,
It’s time once again to celebrate the hidden ugly horror that
Seeks to infest and devour all human souls in this new century. 

Be warned that false-faced beggars...

Premium Member Alienation
The invading alien came near.
A harbinger of ill will I thought, 
paralyzed with overwhelming fear
that it was our abduction he sought.

I called on all the spirits I knew,
vampires, mages, goblins, and a ghost;
a town hall meeting with the whole crew,
I gloomily guessed we were all...

Premium Member Halloween Hope

Halloween often brings out
The alien, vampires and goblins
Who crave to suck your blood
Feasting on your heart’s hope
With diabolical plans for more
Trickery than treats, leaving
You paralyzed by the abduction
Of your joy and gentle promise
Which keeps you feeling certain
That love always wins in the end!
This is a...
