Jack O Lantern
Just as the fall season begins
All around we see pumpkin grins
Children all clad in their costumes
Kindred spirits flying from tombs
On this magical night, haunted
Let nothing keep you undaunted
As you fill goodie bags with treats
Next door the sounds of running feet
The laughter and screams inviting
Exuberant and exciting
Relax when the candy is gone
Now that the children are all done
Joyce Le Lievre

Joyce, this Poem made me think back of when I used to go Trick or Treating when I was younger, too be honest if I could get away with it.. I probably would still go trick or treating, lol. Keep up the great work and best of luck to you in the contest.
Cheers
