                  Alone on Halloween

The night was one for cuddling by the fire

In the air were spooks and goblin attire

Spiders, witches and bloodied ghouls

We saw fiery pumpkins and costumes so cruel

We saw silhouetted bats in a blood moon sky

Where Frankenstein figures with ghosts with one eye

They were vampires who were out to blood suck

We huddled by the fire with blankets well tucked

Knocks on the door made us all frightfully feel

There may be a wizard casting spells for real

They were all for treats and maybe some tricks

Or maybe some children with playful sword sticks

Black green eyed cats were off for a howl

And hunchbacked monsters who would give us a scowl

And the most ghastly thing that came and went

Was our landlord coming for the rent
