Glowing lanterns' faces grinning, Ghosts around the tombstones brimming, Goblins look to see who's sinning, Ghouls through the mists are swimming,
Cackling witches on their brooms, Crows fly panicked as they go by, Creepy things haunt all the rooms, Creaking floorboards softly sigh,
Moon gets shrouded in grey mist, Mysterious things run about, Monsters each shake a fist, More unseen things are here no doubt,
Bats' wings spread dispersing fog, Beastly screams echo long, Beware what's moving in the bog, Be not allured by siren song,
Some say there be vampires too, Shrieking over yonder way, Surely if it's really true, Stay far from there 'til light of day,
Avoiding them can seem quite daunting, After sundown they roam free, Ask not why this night they're haunting, Away with us, let's leave them be.

Brian, your Gothic pen took me on a journey into the heart of Halloween. There is a Poeish spirit here that you run with and fly. Love how you make the dark your own realm.
