Halloween Sunrise

Of HALLOWEEN parties of college 
Long, long time ago, I can remember 
SILHOUETTES of skeletons filled the living room
As party goers masked in the OPEN
Their spooky  night blooming with GLOOM
Spiders, bats and ghosts lurked in the DARKNESS 
DESCENDING  on the campus 
On a first year student filled with DRED
I stood alone that night, cornered 
My teeth chattering at the CREEPY crawlers 
With those Jack-O-Lanterns eyes WALKING over me
I was captivated, spelled and charmed 
The rites of passage firmly borne 
In the morning I was no longer a wall flower
