 * Tricks and Treats

Halloween, the greatest holiday of the year, Racing from house to house, As soon as the sun melts into the horizon, Tripping over the long robes and skirts of our costumes, Drawing out our wands and attacking our friends with long swords, Stuffing our pumpkins and cauldrons, Full with neatly packaged candies and treats, Soaring past jeering pumpkins, Their freshly carved faces seeming to dance in the candlelight, Tearing fearfully away from cackling witches, and hissing cats, Seeming to reach for us through the dark fog, Skipping eagerly to our kitchens, Where we can pour out our candy and stuff our faces, And then, finally, flopping on our beds, Our heads full with thoughts of candy, costumes, And the wonderful night we have just had.
