21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 270

 

A Little Cock Sparrow

Sat on a tree,

Until a sparrow hawk

Ate him for his tea

ARE YOU WEARING A TRENCH COAT?

 

Are you wearing a trench coat?

It’s certainly got my vote

It’s got you wrapped up well

And not a soul could tell

That beneath its military style

You’re quite naked all the while

 

SEASON OF WITCH

 

When the werewolf’s howl

And vampires take to the wing

When the witches start to brew

And you hear the banshees sing

When the ghouls are on the move

And the ghosts can all be seen

Then that’s the time you know

That it’s the night of Halloween

TIS ON THE NIGHT OF HALLOWEEN

 

Tis on the night of Halloween

When ghosts and ghouls and things obscene

Arrive when our worlds come together unseen

And the souls and demons can pass between

A VAMPIRES TALE

 

When the sun has long set

At dead of night

I rise from my bed

And go out for a bite

 

Soon I am flying

On my vampire quest

Its fresh young necks

That I like the best

 

Though I am in no way

A connoisseur

And I would not turn down

Something more mature

 

Soon I find a subject

Ripe for the picking

And when I’ve supped

My lips I’m licking

 

Then I return fulfilled

To my dark domain

And sleep the clock around

Until I can sup again

TERROR THREAT

 

I wear a funny wig

My sister has a mask

We are well disguised

To go about our task

 

To have fun with our friends

Collecting Candy to eat

As we terrorise the neighbours

As we go “trick or treat”

YOU’RE NEVER TOO OLD FOR HALLOWEEN

 

It was a really spooky night

And I saw a very scary sight

We had been out “trick or treating”

And got home and started freaking

My parents were dressed as witches

Both were without their breeches

And my mum, not a natural blonde

Was playing with my father’s wand
