Night falls and shines th'moon.
As senses ignite, I stir,

Spooky vibes in twilight,  
Purple rays dance through shadows,  
Gazing eyes hold secrets,  
Lady S on her throne glows,

And scared all the kids with delight!

Halloween

That spooky time of year
Creeps up upon us, again
We celebrate death, goblins,
and evil things
We might as well celebrate
Taxes 
If we are to celebrate creepy things.

Two Ghosts

Two ghosts in the night did unite,
In a love dance under the spooky moonlight.
But the tabby cat near,
With a disapproving sneer,
Said, "Your timing's just not quite right!"
