Excellent Halloween is a night of spooky fun, pranks and crazy costume The Spirit of Halloween by Peter Jarvis Halloween Poetry contest entry

The air feels crunchy, a shivering breeze, As shadows lengthen 'neath the trees. A moon hangs high, a ghostly gleam, And the wind whispers a haunted scream   A crumbling house, moans and groans And shadows dance like crunching bones A cobweb hangs, a ghostly scene Horrors await, as yet unseen   A pumpkin grins, with candle bright, A sinister spectacle in the fading light. Costumes bright, now laughter begins As Halloween's magic, joy it brings. Author Notes First submission
