We all love to be frightened in the pretend kind of way that only Halloween allows. Haunted houses, forests, and other conjured-up creepiness come out this time of year and we pay for the fun of the adrenaline rushes it causes. Fun verse for the season.

True. Halloween is that type of time when you are tempted to play some trick. The child in us is always there waiting to come out .well written and precisely expressed.

Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
This is a delightful poem that seems so easy to write, but you obviously put some thought into making it so brief and yet full of details. How come you repost so many little treasures. With your skill as a writer, I should think you would never need to repost.

I sometimes like to repost for more critique. Each time I get feedback, I learn more. And these haven't been read by most of the people here now. So they are new to them. That's all. Gretchen

I love all your spooky poems. I can tell you love Halloween... me too. It's a fan holiday. I used to dress up now not so much.
Well done!

Thanks, Ric. Poetry is like math to me. I'm in awe watching someone solve a problem, but I just don't understand how they do it. Gretchen

Monsters dancing to a beat. (This line made me laugh. I never thought of monsters dancing, but hey why not. I would love to see this. Then I asked exactly what dance would a monster do? I doubt they waltz.)
I really enjoyed reading this poem. Thank you for reposting it. I'm still imagining monsters dancing.

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
I'd noticed your passion, Gretchen:) And this time of year seems to be exactly tailored to your art. This is a much more succinct version of your usual but including all the fun/horror that we come to expect. Well done! Debbie

I do love all of the seasons but it's the rich warm colors and the flickering candle light of fall that thrills me. I remember in grade school drawing up great plans of costumes only to be a Gypsy every year. Lol. Loved coloring pictures of haunted houses. That's what makes me think of fall and Halloween. It's the season to slow down after summers excitement. Thank you for this. Gretchen
Comment from JSD
You're not allowed to be so good at stories and then write poems too. It's just not fair! This is fun, with entertaining rhyme and rhythm to add to its entertaining qualities. I particularly like the green goo!

I am a poetry school dropout. I don't understand meter at all. Lol. Just sometimes you gotta write a poem. It's like singing the National anthem. Can't carry a tune in a bucket, but you gotta try. Thank you so much. Gretchen

Hilarious!
Comment from Dolly'sPoems
You brought the horror of Halloween out in this post Gretchen and I enjoyed your imaginative poem. I think you could say (wall) rather than (walls) in the fourth couplet. Love Dolly x

Thank you, Dolly. You have no fear of me as a poet. I am in awe of y'all. Meter, syllables, couplets? It's like math class. Fun to rhyme though. Lol. Appreciate this. Gretchen
