New Poetry-Page 47 (HAPPY HALLOWEEN)

The Full Moon

It was an eerie night,
The full moon was shining bright,
And ghostly shapes seemed to appear,
In the moonlight far and near.

The wind made a wailing sound,
As it stirred the leaves all around,
Dark clouds over the moon draped,
And the trees appeared ghastly shaped.

Then was heard a horrid moan,
An unearthly supernatural groan,
As if from a demon from the depths of hell.
Everything was under the full moon's spell.






The Haunted House

The old house stood battered and worn,
The windows broken, the curtains torn,
The roof's shingles all blown away,
And the siding weathered and gray.

The trees around it were dead or dying,
And the remnants of flowers seemed sighing,
As if all life and hope were abandoned,
And that eternal doom was commanded.

Around the old house storms did often brew,
At night a wild wailing wind often blew,
With a maniacal thunder and lightning display.
Nothing could drive the evil away.


Autumnal Magic

The pumpkins are ripe on the vine,
The leaves are falling from the trees,
In autumn everything is fine,
As the leaves fly about in the breeze.

In autumn the skies are the deepest blue,
And the nights are crisp and cool,
The sun shines brightly the whole day through,
And the mornings are frosty around the pool.

The trees display their colorful foliage array,
The apples are ripe, and grain ready to harvest,
Autumnal magic exists almost every day,
For pleasant weather and beauty autumn is best.

Trick Or Treating

A trick or treating we will go,
What we'll get we don't know,
Hopefully there will be lots of sweets,
And we will get a bag full of treats.

Little ghosts and goblins are we,
So filled with happiness and glee,
A trick or treating down the street,
Saying boo to everyone we meet.

It is that wonderful time of year,
That children and grownups hold dear,
When colorful costumed tykes are seen;
It is that spooktacular holiday, Halloween!


Jack O' Lantern

Jack O' Lantern in the window,
How brightly your eyes do glow.
On this the night of Halloween,
How warm your smile does seem.

Jack O' Lantern you are a friend,
Who kindly smiles without end,
You are so radiant in the night,
Everyone is enchanted by your light.

Jack O' Lantern won't you stay?
Why must you always go away?
It would be good if you could last,
And glow on after Halloween is past.
