Hello Anew

There are goblins in my garden

and winged beasts on my porch.

Nowlook! there's Frankenstiens monster

carrying a little torch.

 

 

On the path, doing math

is a scientist looking very tense.

Dracula and his evil bride

are sitting on my fence.

 

 

Here comes a pretty princess

followed by a very hairy wolf,

and I just saw a group of angels

land up on my roof.

 

 

Now there's three bears, carrying chairs

they say they want some porridge.

Now there's an alien camping out

in the shed I use for storage.

 

 

I hear a shriek, then someone say

"Ha ha I got you good".

Then I see G. I. Joe

hiding behind my firewood.

 

 

There are ghouls who groan and drool

as they flit around my yard,

along with Freddy Kruger

with his face so scarred.

 

 

There's a pirate and a policeman.

OH! what a funny looking pair,

and just behind them, Ranpunzel

with her golden hair.

 

 

Now comes a gray haired Gramma

her makeup is very glam.

She doesn't want any candy

she says she wants a can of Pam.

 

 

Oh what a sight, this hoary night

to see so many different things.

Somewhere in the distance

I hear a doorbell ring.

 

 

I wake up on my couch

not feeling very dandy.

It was just a dream- it's halloween

I just ate too much candy.

Author notes

this poem was written before I saw the contest. I added the verse about your Gramma after the fact, hope it still fits your rules...peace

by the way "hello Anew"is an anagram for "halloween"

A contest entry

      Hey Gal, that verse with gramma and pam was added after this was written, I added it to fit into the contest perameters, and I guess it worked, I won gold- with a humor piece--we know who I have to thank for that dont we...peace
