Halloween Fright

by HarryT

 

Beneath the moon's eerie glow

A little costumed ghost does go

Door to door asking for a treat

Footsteps echo on the empty street

Suddenly a whisper calling his name

He turns and sees a monster man

Reaching toward him with icy hands

He screams and begins to run in fright

Monster grabs his arm and says, “Wait!”

He takes off his mask and whispers,

“Son, wasn’t our plan that

You were going to wait for me?”

“Sorry, Dad. Please come with me"

Takes Dad’s hand and skips happily.
