The air is chill with Autumn’s breeze
The floor scattered with Autumn leaves
Children costumed head to feet
Eyes and grins wide asking Trick or Treat?
Candlelight reflecting off the television screen
Ghost faces and frights that will make you Scream.
With jack-o’-lanterns and eerie tales
The spookiness of Hallowe’en prevails.
What began as a celebration of the dead
Celebrates the supernatural instead
Take care of which stories you believe
On All Hallows’ Eve.
