The Little Obstreperous Witch.
She Wrinkled Her Nose At Her Useless Broom
And Then Gave It A Toss In A Ditch
She Was All Dressed Up And Had Somewhere To Be
The Little Obstreperous Witch,
She Stood On A Rooftop Looking Up At The Sky
With Her Little Thumb Out For A Hitch
She Looked Far And Near With A Frown On Her Face
The Little Obstreperous Witch,
The Halloween Ball Was Soon To Begin
And Her Dancing Shoes Gave A Twitch
Her Cat Hissed A Snarl And She Scowled Right Back
The Little Obstreperous Witch,
Then Out Of The Sky A Large Raven Appeared
By The Name Of Mister Fritch
She Hopped On Aboard And Flew Off To The Ball
The Little Obstreperous Witch...!!!
Screech Owl Stew Is A Delicacy
A Culinary Delight
But Before You Catch A Screech Owl
He Might Put Up A Fight
Who'd Want To Get Stewed
In A Pot Seeping With Mummy's Hair???
If You Were A Screech Owl
You'd Want To Get Out Of There,
You Hear Them Screech
Piercing The Night
It Echoes Everywhere So
Do I Turn Left Or Right???
Finding A Screech Owl
Is A Formidable Job
He's A Wily Codger
An Annoying, Diabolical Snob,
You Won't Find Screech Owl Stew
In A Restaurant Or Store
People Either Gag, Turn Blue
Or They Want Some More
If You Make It Yourself
You Might Have To Substitute
The Screech Owl
With The Eye Of Knut...!!!
Scarecrow Friend.
My Scarecrow Friend
Always Tries To Send
The Birds Flying Away
But More Times Than Not
What's He's Really Got
Is Birds Who Come To Stay...!!!
Pumpkin Carving.
Get The Pencil, Get The Knives
We Can't Wait Til Night Arrives,
Pumpkin Carving Is So Much Fun
Scoop Out The Seeds, We're Almost Done,
Take Off The Lid, Put In A Light
Keep Us Scared All Halloween Night...!!!
Superstitions.
Black Cats, Broken Mirrors And A Ladder,
Are All Forms Of Superstitions That Make You Shudder.
Sometimes Evil May Fall Upon You Most Unexpectedly,
Like The Next Story I’m About To Tell You, So Listen Carefully.
This Happens Annually On Halloween,
Where Hideous Creatures Are Unafraid To Be Seen.
So, As Night Approaches And Toddlers Sleep,
Witches Round Their Cauldrons Creep.
They Wait Patiently For The Children To Appear,
Dressed In Splendid Costumes, Looking Somewhat Queer.
Armed with magical potions and spells,
Witches Dance To The Jingle Of The Bells.
Delighted, O They Most Certainly Are,
To Hear The Words "Trick Or Treat", Their Eyes Sparkle Like A Star.
Smiling Secretly Behind Hidden Masks,
Satisfied With The Outcome Of Their Tasks.
There Is No Doubt At The Witches’ Success,
Because At Dawn, All Mothers Are Quite Distressed.
It Seems That Every Child In Town,
Has Taken Up A Painful Frown.
For Most Of Their Teeth Are Decayed And Rotten,
Due To The Huge Pile Of Candy They Had Eaten.
Now, You Might Believe This Or You Might Not,
Just Don’t Blame Me When Your Teeth Start To Rot
(LIKE HELL)...!!!
Pumpkin Time
October Is Pumpkin Time,
The Nicest Time Of Year.
When All The Pumpkins Light Their Eyes,
And Grin From Ear To Ear.
Because They Know At Halloween,
They'll have lots of Fun.
Peeking Through The Window Panes,
And Watching People Run...!!!
House For Sale...!!!
Two Fireplaces. Eat-in-Kitchen,
Atmosphere you'll Find Bewitchin.
Lots Of Bedrooms. Space Galore,
Slightly Creaky Hardwood Floors.
Walk-In Closet You Can Fill,
Stunning View Atop A Hill.
Asking Price Is Very Good,
In A lovely Neighborhood.
All In All, just What You Wanted.
(By the way, THIS HOUSE IS HAUNTED...!!!)
Ghosts Must Enjoy
A Devious Lark
Because They Save Their Scarh Havoc
Until It Is Dark,
Have They Nothing Better To Do
Than Haunt My House???
It's Getting Too Frightening
For Man Or Mouse...!!!
Pumpkin
We Bought A Fat Orange Pumpkin,
The Plumpest Sort They Sell.
We Neatly Scooped The Inside Out,
And Only Left The Shell.
We Carved A Funny Funny Face,
Of Silly Shape And Size.
A Pointy Nose,
A Jagged Mouth And Two Enormous Eyes.
We Set It In A Window,
And We Put A candle In.
Then lit It Up
For All To See Our Jack-o-lantern Grin...!!!
Pumpkin's Place
Pumpkin's Place
However Many Pumpkins Sit
Along The Pumpkin Vine,
The Biggest And The Roundest One
Is Going To Be Mine.
I'll Carve His Eyes, A Nose, And Mouth,
Like No One's Ever Seen,
Then Set Him On The Window Ledge,
The Eve Of Halloween.
He'll Celebrate This Night Of Nights,
Atop This Special Place,
So Those Who Pass Beneath His Seat
Will See His Glowing Face...!!!
