~~All Hallows Eve~~

Missing image
The fall wind whispers and moans in fright
As menacing shadows approach the night
Almost midnight the sky chillingly clear
People are overwhelmed and consumed with fear

Outside so close I hear the crackling leaves
As the spirits rise and begin to breathe
I hear piercing cries from the hounds of hell
As they capture souls, at the ring of the bell

Witches and warlocks now descend
Beware of the dark and who you call friend
Demons walk among us all
They await their moment, then seize their call

All Hallow's Eve has came once yet again
The night of covens,and unspeakable sin
Lock all your doors,leave your lights on
You will only survive the night
By staying up until dawn

    This is a great Halloween poem sis. You always have amazing imagery and this is no exception. My son decided to stay home this year and I'm feeling sort of left about. Next year I plan on going out even if I have to do it alone. I love Halloween!

    excellent!

    You create a very eerie mood in your poem. Your words take the reader into this scary night with all of the horrific happenings and visions.

    Good luck in this contest!

    Nice rhythm and flow. You need Vincent Price to recite this. Erie indeed and appropriate for the season.
