THE FRIGHT OF YOUR LIFE by cindy tevis


The old hag is sweeping her doorstep tonight
Preparing for the big affair
The kiddies will come all dressed up for delight
Oblivious that they should beware

They won't notice her cackle or shabby old face
As they step up near her silhouette
Tis the night to dress up all over the place
But this visit they will never forget

She smiles at the ghosties and goblins and such
And then she invites them inside
Showing them treats that enchant them so much
They stand their with bags open wide

Soon the lights become dim
and the kiddies get scared
Her face looks so grim
No child will be spared

Heed this warning dear children
On Halloween night
Don't walk up to old houses
Lest you prepare for the fright
of your life!
