The witches are flying high
Beneath the starry October sky.
Skeletons shuffle along the sidewalk
Monsters abound! Some with only one eye!
A werewolf is dancing all covered with fur,
And I cannot tell if it's a him or a her!
Suddenly someone knocks on my door.
It's some kind of creature I've never seen before!
I open the door with a great deal of fright
And look out into the Halloween night.
A tiny voice inside the creature
(A rather strange and ironic little feature)
Says: "I'll give you a trick if you don't give me a treat!" As it stood at my doorstep
Obviously looking for something to eat!
I gathered my strength and went looking for candy,
And wouldn't you know I found something dandy!
I put the treats into the little goblin's hand
And watched it shuffle off into Halloweenland.
About an hour or so later as I was watching TV
My daughter said: "Thanks for the candy, Daddy! That creature was me!"

Be kind to the creatures who visit your door
this Halloween!
