treat

by Mary Frances Spencer

no clouds
gonna roll over
this halloween

dark edges crumbling
beams burning
through

spill out hope
splash those rays around

all the candy apples
are going
down

I'm dressing up this year, first year in a LOOOOONG time. Long blond wig, burgundy cape, black accessories, vampire fangs. *giggling* I can't wait!

Darn it, I hit my mouse and it sent the comment BEFORE I could say - this is lovely!

Mary Frances, I love the energy in your words and the idea of enjoying the night no matter what. It's fortunate the rain held off until Satuday a.m., and Sunday overnight. One of these days when I'm not working on Halloween, I'll either dress up and go trick-or-treating or buy candy to give to the kids. There were quite a bit on my street.

Fun Mary. I too liked the last stanza...CharMin
