All About Halloween

These are all old poems. I wrote them when I was a sinner.






A perfect Halloween 
Scary movies 
Pocorn favorites 
Candy apples 
Carnivals 
Haunted houses 
And looking glasses 
Come join the fun 
Spooky music 
Good jokes and laughter 
Family and friends 
All joining in 
On what fall 
Has to offer 


Research, research 
The origin of Halloween 
Fun friends and laughter 
is not what it is 
The true reason for Halloween 
Is mean. 
Today we celebrate in fun 
but yesterday 
back in the old day 
they worshiped 
and tried to keep 
evil away


When I was young 
I didn't like to trick, 
Or treat 
I Just wanted to see 
costumes parties 
and fun 
nothing boring 
and hum drum 


But mom the kiddies 
only trick or treat 
go on child 
soon you will be to old 
to go knocking 
door to door 
Then you will 
be begging for more 
no I want 
you'll see. 

The only place 
now I want to treat 
is to my aunties house 
she has home made stuff to eat. 






On Halloween 
watching scary movies 
was a real treat 
then my mom got sick 
she died the next day 
Nov 1st 
so Halloween isn't as fun 
as it used to be. 
But don't worry after Nov 1st 
I will be smiles once more 
It happens every year now 
This year I will fight it 
With the help of the Lord. 


As long as it makes them happy 
it's fine with me 
your only young once 
so let them be 

I like the carnival 
and fall festival fun 
changing leaves 
and those straw standing things 
out in the front lawn
