Spooky Ghostly Halloween 
the sky looks like velveteen. 
Wild loud howls, nowhere to be seen, 
echo through of the wolverine. 

The citrine moon hangs, high, 
a wicked smile, cunning, and sly.
In a blink of a dominant eye
bats chase the clouds across the sky. 

Eerie, Pumpkin...

Ella's Spooky Night of Terror
Ebon was the night and the road was winding.
The thunder struck and the lightning blinding.
One moment of peace Ella was intent on finding.
A good safe haven she was trying to discover,
a terrible gruesome occurrence she did uncover.
It was about the last time she saw her...

Spooky: Lady of the House Pantoum
In the dark and shaded glen
amid foreboding trees
in the place where a house had been
there never comes a breeze

Amid foreboding trees
blood cries out from the earth
there never comes a breeze
she weeps for all she's worth

Blood cries out from the earth
where she became his wife
she weeps...

Premium Member I Was Pappa Wood {spooky Poem}
Running the yard it was either him or I
So I filed my shank and prepared to die

I warmed up until they popped the door
“Want some - Get some” I want some more

Stabbing another person is its own high
Collapse of their lung with a gurgling sigh

Fear...

The Spooky Cauldron
for my beautiful Mary Kate

Bubble and double, trouble and toil;
Smell the kettle as it starts to boil.
Rack-ety frack-ety, goopity-goop;
The witch stirs in liver, a toad, and some poop!

Rock-ety pock-ety, zim zam zoom zot;
Eyeballs, spaghetti go into the pot.
Tweed-lee dum-did-dee bake me a cake;
In goes a...

First came Vince and then came Fred.

Spooky night




When on a dark rainy night,
Moon had cheated the sky,
No twinkle of stars in sight,
Scare was at its peak high !

Faster as I walked very vigilant,
Closer heard the footsteps follow,
Palpitations turned me intolerant,
Came trepidation, could not swallow,

Reflection veiled causing a gallop,
All of my strength...

Lantern of the Shadowed Glade

In shadowed glades where spirits dwell,
Beneath the boughs of an ancient spell. 
A pumpkin awaits, its fate foretold,
By tomes of old and tales untold.

Carved with care by children’s hands,
A toothy grin upon its face expands.
Yet, within those haunting, hollowed eyes,
Lies a...

One Night In a Haunted Manner
I missed a blind corner one grim stormy night,
On a dark forest road, with no phone.
The crash was severe, but what gave me more fright
Was I had to walk out all alone.

A mile, maybe two, and there loomed into view
An imposing stone manor, quite old.
I...

The Curse
At the sound of the knock, Mac opened the door,
And there on the porch stood his friend LeBours.
“I came at your call as fast as I dare.”
“You’re here at last, that’s all I care.”

Mac paused to clear this throat and said:
“I think tonight I shall...

living with a ghost is easy
sometimes scary
       a bit hard on the nerves
               at times   but lovely too     ...

Premium Member Sacrificial Lamb
Streaks of pallid moonlight  
wash over blood-stained  
burnt umber leaf blight.  
Glistening stainless steel remains  
within wilting noir roses  
and blistered blades of grass.  
Sickening hands shake my repose,  
heart racing, sure to collapse,  
feeling faint. ...
