The Real Hallowe'en

- Zara McAlister


Trick or Treat!
Bloody feet!
These are creatures
You will meet …

A pumpkin head,
Dead in a flower bed,
Glares and makes you
Shiver with dread.

Ghostly bats
Swoop down on cats
Chasing after
Ugly rats.

Chilly breeze
Rustles trees
And dead leaves,
Scaring you with ease.

A bubbling brew
Of sickening stew
Is made by a witch
To cast spells on you.

An old house hosts
Some shrieking ghosts--
And if you enter,
You are toast!

Frankenstein groans
And mummies moan.
Skeletons shake
Their rattling bones.

Zombies, monsters,
Pirates, ghouls
Make us run
Like frightened fools.

Vampires sneak
For a midnight treat,
And when they eat
They leave you weak.

Werewolves howl
At the moon's pale light,
To give you a fright
On Hallowe'en Night.

So when you Trick or Treat that night,
Be careful, child, be careful!
