Happy Halloween!
A yellow melon moon hangs high
Above white-frosted mountain tops
Gaggles of giddy geese fly by,
And noisily, “Honk-honk, Honk-honk!”
Delicious chocolate kisses don
Bright and sparkling silver wraps
And dance in skies of black bonbons,
Lighting roofs of caramel thatch
Bewitching music plays beneath
The hallowed celestial chuppah
As little monsters spook’ly sheathed,
Excitedly raise a hoopla!
Chimes and knockers noisily sound-
Plump pumpkin bowls of sweets appear
Shy eyes exclaim, “Look what I found!”
“Thank Yous!” echoing, far and near
Time tick-tocks on the big town clock…
Noisy streets have grown silent and still
Chocolatey starlight has gone dark,
Gaggles of geese, invisible
Masked crusaders no longer around —
They slumber, tucked into their beds
Sweet dreams of Halloween abound,
Whirligigging inside their heads…
Sunlight shines on smiling faces,
Proud treasure hunters sleep no more
Eagerly, they scramble and race —
To sort and sample their sugary score!
