Up and down the street,
witches and goblins are on the scene.
Normally, I'd be frightened,
but today is Halloween.
There's a knocking at my door,
a monster wants some treats.
His green hand reaches out,
as he yells, "Trick or Treat!"
Pumpkins are out on porches,
their faces all aglow.
Running through the neighborhood,
children put on their yearly show.
Creatures of every shape and size,
a pirate, a princess, a bride.
And underneath various masks,
are the faces they try to hide.
After awhile their tired legs,
lead them all on home.
To go through their bags of candy they got,
from all the blocks that they did roam.
They fall asleep with happy thoughts,
bellies full of chocolates and creams.
With smiles on their faces,
they slumber with sweet dreams.
