Treats

• Pink envelopes with letters inside
• Red and white balloons filled with sweets
• This experience is not an unusual one 
• On St. Val's I always get treats 
• I don't know from who
• I don't know from where 
• But they're done with good intentions 
• So I don't really care

Premium MemberTinseled Treats Poem Two

 

Tinseled treats, hung from our Christmas tree.
Young, saucered eyes, just gleamed and shined 
At the charming, twisting gold and silver art works.
For indeed, these are one of this holiday’s perks!

To a very young child, they whisper of things magical.
Swaying and dancing,they observe from Mother’s clavicle
And though speech, be not theirs, as of yet.
Their artistic

Premium MemberHalloween Trick or Treats

full moon on hallow's eve
ghosts and goblins
will be trick or treating
for bags and bags of candy
toffee apples on sticks
enough sweets to rot their teeth

children roam the streets
as costumed munchkins
looking for yummy treats
darkness filled with characters
older kids dressed up wild
ranging from devils to angels

spooky pumpkins
carved with care
eerie sounds from coffins
in the dead of night
creaking doors and

Picture Prompt Poetry Contest
Margarita Lillico


It's Halloween night for these three oddballs
Spooks the masks, costumes, candies, norms, and dolls
Three little boys on the prowl
That looks displaced, strange, and foul
Their sights were on scaring with their eyeballs

Halloween treats

Halloween TREATS 'LAY' on the STREET 
In the 'GREY', the SCENE PRISTINE 
Costumes MIXED and FIXED as the children roam in fleet

Children of all 'AGES', DRESS to IMPRESS
Ready for their 'STAGES', to present LOUD and PROUD 
Waiting to EXPRESS at the door of the ADDRESS 

FOOLS and GHOULS and 'WITCHES' too 
QUEUE up in 'STITCHES'

Premium MemberHALLOWEEN

HALLOWEEN

Halloween started as a Celtic celebration
But things have changed over the generations
People get dressed in costumes and walk the streets
Knocking on doors and asking everyone they meet
Just one question and that is “Trick or Treat?”
So, we give them lollies to avoid getting tricked
If nobody knocks upon my door
Then it is me that I bought the

Premium MemberPizza Fritta

Grandma Teresina Cavicchio,
best pizza fritta maker
in all of Marianna, PA.
Probably the whole world!
Her fried pizza dough, dusted
with powdered sugar,
bellissima!
Lightly browned outside,
creamy in the inside,
it was the stuff
of mouth-watering dreams.
My three sisters and I
lined up in Nonna’s kitchen, chanted,
“Pizza Fritta, good to eat-a,
give me some, it is a treat-a!”
Her apron white with snowy sugar,
her ample arms

Premium MemberTreats And Sweets

Lined with a fence of modeling chocolate,
treats and sweets but never gingerbread;
My garden grows popcorn and cotton candy
eat all you like it just keeps germinating;

Treats and sweets but never gingerbread,
my cupboard is all out of fondant;
Eat all you like it just keeps germinating 
pappi’ caught in sugared shrubbery;

My cupboard is all out of fondant,
such a

Premium MemberThanksgiving Dinner

November came in downright quiet
Scorning seasons who bring a riot
Thanksgiving would come fast,
Scrumptiousness at long last,
Warranting you’d go on a diet

Sun shining bright in sweet November
Causing souls to surely remember,
Thanksgiving brings delights,
Sweetness in tiny bites,
Bellies eager to meet December
