Trick or Treat!

Click on photo to enlarge

1. Pumpkins, ghosts, and witches hats, 
clowns and cowboys and black cats,
Football players, majorettes, 
kittens, dogs, and cuddly pets,
Dinosaurs and furry bears, 
elephants and rabbit ears.
a fairy princess or a queen; 
COSTUMES made for Halloween.

2. Chocolate bars and lollipops, 
CANDY corn and lemon drops.
Caramel apples, good to eat, with children crying, “Trick or Treat!”

3. PARTIES, games, and family fun, 
yummy treats for everyone,
Donuts and hot chocolate too, 
served with a prize for best costume.
Trick or treating with good friends, 
laughter until evening ends.

4. Later cuddled with a book 
Mother reads in cozy nook;
Pirates, sailors, Peter Pan; 
stories of a distant land.
Hugs and kisses late at night.  
DREAMS of every sweet delight.

5. Waking feeling warm and snug, 
greeted with a cozy hug.
MEMORIES of the previous night; 
trick or treating by starlight.
Looking forward to next year, 
when Halloween again is here.
Children dream while they’re asleep 
the joy of crying, “Trick or Treat!”
