Halloween
Friday Night

Today has finally come

And all the decorating is done

Everywhere looks so eerie !

Oh My God it’s all so scary

And me dressed up as a fairy

My mum thinks that is scary

I trick or treat in my home town

So many doors closed

Not many around

I’m off to my nana’s for the night

Because where she lives would

Give a ghost a fright

Her windows are dressed up right

Just to give the ghouls a fright

I press the bell the door opens wide

And a spooky voice says “come right inside

Its only Nana”, she says with pride

I look around and to my delight

Sweets and apples to my right

And on my left on what a fright

It’s even dark inside at night !

Dip your head if you dare

You never know what might be there !

Curling screams from down below
What oh what is that glow!

I’m scared I’m scared

I just don’t know

Perhaps to bed I should go

Settle down for the night

And at my window to my delight....

Is my Daddy looking in to see if I’m alright
