HALLOWEEN IS A CONTEST

 

For my friends and I, Halloween is a contest

And I go all out to beat them all

This year I dressed my dog up as a cat

But now he won’t come when I call

THE LESSON THAT HALLOWEEN TEACHES

The lesson that Halloween teaches

Us all, Might well strike a chord

It’s pretending to be something you're not

Which will lead to a sweet reward



A HOLIDAY DECEPTION # 2

 

I pretend to be someone I’m not

Just to receive something sweet

Which could be for Valentine’s Day

Or just for a Halloween treat

A STRESSED OUT MOTHER AND HER CHILD

 

A stressed out mother and her child

Went into the fancy dress shop

Rushing around from pillar to post

Without a moments pause or stop

“Here try this one” the mother said

Grabbing a Devils suit in a whirl

Her six year old daughter retorted

“I don’t want it, I’m not an evil girl”

IF VAMPIRES CAN’T SEE

 

If vampires can’t see

Their own reflection

In a mirror, either flat

Convex or concave

Then the thing that I

Have always wondered is

How do they manage?

When they have to shave?

ONCE I SAW A VAMPIRE

 

Once I saw a vampire,

Dressed in familiar attire

My instinct was to run

But he looked quite done

As he was old and tired

So, I assumed he was retired

And was sure it was safe

So, I waved to the Vampire

BLACK AND WHITE STRIPED STOCKINGS

 

Black and white striped stockings

Was all that the witch was wearing

Apart from the tradition headwear

And ankle boots, so it was very daring

And when the witch asked “Trick or Treat”

She clearly wasn’t there for the scaring
