Halloween Night

Halloween Night

It happened on, all Hallows Eve,
told in a story by a witch I believe.

The Children came knocking with their bags full of treats,
dressed as goblins and ghosts in makeup and sheets.
One house they approached, not a light or a flicker,
The door was held open, on it's last hinge,
while the black painted shutters hung on by a fringe.
Inside you can see the candle lit jackal, smiling with a smirk and a hackle.
The children were frightened and ran down the street,
all you can hear is the scuffling of feet.
As the night came to a fall,
there was one little ghost who did nothing at all;
it was his house he seemed to recall.

I love this poem. It reminds me of Halloween When I was little

Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
