Thank you sharing your spook filled scary Halloween poem with us. Every line brought these scary thoughts to life. Beware is the word of the night. Great job and good luck in the contest.

I enjoyed the rhythm, rhyme and content of your Halloween poem.I haven't a favorite stanza because I like them all. Your references are so descriptive that you had no need to actually use words like cat or vampire. Well done.

Well, this was quite a bit of fun,
but pardon me -I have to run.
I heard a shriek and took a peek
and there was Creepy, Casper's son...

I'm just a soft and little child,
and verse like this is simply wild
so I'll be up tonight ('til dawn)
(although when reading this, I smiled...)

*grin* Good luck in the contest! Well done.

This is stunning! Your rhythm is super-tight and the rhyming scheme (including the internal rhyme) gives the piece such melody. The visual image you chose to accompany the piece is also really impactful. I really, really enjoyed this read. Very clever. Good luck in the contest!

Very cool Halloween poem! Love the rhyming scheme which you did so well at! Maybe not read that to the kids before they go. Trick-or-treating LOL having said that. I see no issues with grammar instead of spelling sentence structure subject matter. Well, he did a great job on this awesome submission. Hope you have the best day

This is such a well-crafted verse and I'm particularly impressed by your strong rhyming pattern, excellent alliteration, not to mention the perfect flow of the verse. You create that creepy atmosphere for all its worth with evocative imagery in full swing. Well done, Jess, and good luck! Debbie
