I love all of the different takes on the holiday. It ranges from cute kids in costumes to evil demons prowling for souls. What a wonderfully written poem. Good luck in the contest! Have a great day, and God bless.

Comment from Michael Ludwinder
What a wonderfully written poem! I loved how you captured Halloween with such a playful tone. I thought the visual of the "huge October moon" illuminating the costumed kids is fantastic. I especially enjoyed the rhyme throughout. So well done. It's such a joy to read! Great job capturing the spirit of the season! Keep up the fantastic work!

You captured the spirit of Halloween really well in this piece, I love the image of the freshly cut jack o lanterns and I love seeing them on people's doorsteps. An excellent piece. Good luck in the contest.

This is wonderfully written my friend, and excellent, written in attractive language painting a great image of the goings on on a Halloween eve, the narrative highlights the difference between the innocence of children and the starkness of the narrative, well done, blessings Roy

A poem filled with all the delights and joys and dressing up that is associated with Halloween- some exquisite images 'An owl hoots, darkened shape atop a tree.'

Zanya, lovely review! Thank you.
Comment from jmdg1954
To me you captured the many moods of Halloween here in your poem.
From fun to fright to the wind blowing to weather portions, it's all encompassing.
Nicely crafted. Best of luck in the contest.
