Moohaahaahaaa - BOO! (Gee, I guess it brings out the kid in me too! LOL) I LOVE this sweet poem - goose-bumpy, spooky, creepy fun in rhyming couplets - who could ask for more? :)

The title of the poem really suits well. I like the inclusion of black cat but chasing the frighten mouse is something which happens normally inside the house. I'll prefer that the cat is scared too.

    This black cat is a witch's cat, nothing scares her. LOL. Thanks for the great review.

Nice and simple. I can't rhyme worth a damn so I can appreciate the effort put into this poem. I would try for a darker tone, like more focus on the monsters and what they would do to mortals. But it's just a thought. good luck next time.

    Thanks for the thoughts and the review. I just like the good old scare of frankenstein and witches with pointy hats. All good fun.

I like the light touch you used in this Halloween-theme poem. Makes the kid in me want popcorn balls in my treat sack. Good luck to you, Jeanie Mercer

    I'm a strictly chocolate candy bar kind of girl. I'll trade you popcorn balls for your chocolate. Thanks for the great review.

    It's been a long time since anyone has offered popcorn balls, I think. I like the chocolate, too.

Plenty of fun in this seasonal piece. I like the celebratory spirit and mention of the pleasure of indulging in fear.

I'd like to see more attention to the stress patterns, accented and unaccented syllables. You can get a much stronger sound with a regular pattern of stresses.

Keeping the same number of syllables per line can also standardize the sound to the reader's ear and give it a more powerful symmetry.

Nice work!

Maybe I should dress in costume this year. The kids all seem to have fun, it is contagious. Get your cookies and candy in order for your guests.
