my ode to Halloween
Since I have nothing better to do...I wrote this...about Halloween. And it's not, um, very good. It's really not...
All hallow’s eve
brings all hallow’s leaves
cascading down
brittle and brown
The tricks and the treats
the roaming of streets
ghouls, zombies, and hags
filling up their treat bags
Ghosts with shuffling feet
tripping over white sheets
stumbling on sidewalk cracks
eating sugary snacks
Traipsing door to door
earning candies galore -
in the following weeks
comes rotting of teeth
All hallow’s eve
brings all hallow’s screams
piercing the night
and causing a fright
Soon all hallow’s eve
brings all hallow’s dreams
thoughts of all hallow’s fears
retire until next year
Sounds like a kids book or something, except that it's not long enough to be a book. Or good enough. Maybe I should illustrate it though. Especially the rotting of teeth part.
This Halloween has not been very exciting. Oh, except for the early birthday cupcakes from Heather and Lindsay! Thank you Heather and Lindsay! :)
That is all. Very soon I will be OLD. Goodnight.
