Here's a poem I found I hope you like it.

The Night Before Halloween....


Twas the night before Halloween
And all through the house
All the creatures were stirring,
Especially the mouse!

The "in-house Trick or Treat recepticals" were hung
By the cauldron with care,
In hopes that the Great Pumpkin
Soon would be there.

The witches were planning
A party that night
For their goulfriends, demons, goblins
And other purveyors of fright.

Their black cats were busy
Matting their fur.
The spiders were spinning,
You could hear their spinnerets whir!

Those other familiars,
The owl and the fox,
Heard hissing and scratching
From Pandora's box.

The caldron was steaming
With unsavory stew:
Eye of newt, wart of toad,
A most traditional brew.

The front yard tombstones
With dead flowers adorned;
Skeletons hung from the trees
So all might be warned,

That Halloween Horrors
This night rule the land,
So it's best to stay home
And hold someone's hand!
