Wizards whisper in the night
You crouch and shiver with fright
Witches and Warlocks gather 'round
Goblins and Ghosts move in to surround
This is a night to celebrate terror
Be careful now, no room for error
One little slip and you'll be dead
You may even lose your head
As the Horseman comes calling
In fright you'll be crawling
Praying for mercy upon your soul
Hallow's Eve will take it's toll
If you chance to make it through
To touch the silky morning dew
Enjoy your year free from fear
Before next Hallow's Eve draws hauntingly near
In a list

I haven't had halloween in forever cause My daddy said that I'm too old so I haven't tricker treated in years.

Of course you're too old, silly! You're an adult now. Now, you're supposed to go to costume parties and stand around and guess who everybody is.

Halloween's not stupid, 'cause when you're done trick or treating you get to go home and separate all the candy and get all excited when you look at the piles of the candy that you love!

Ohhhh... I'm coming to your house for Halloween!!
it sounds spooky and I'm ripe for spooky! the only
things that's spooky at my house this time of year
is how fast Halloween candy can disappear into my
hubby's tummy... now that's a scary sight to see.
So give me a road map and I'll be on my way
I'll show up on All Hallows Eve begging for an old
fashioned popcorn ball so get popping. Just keep an
eye out for the middle aged cranky lady wearing the
pre-menopausal fright mask... that'll be me.
OH YOU ARE IN RARE FORM TODAY MISS BUDDY!
