The Something by cindy tevis

It's Halloween night and there you see
Something hiding behind the tree

Is it a goblin or a mean old witch,
Searching the limbs for the perfect switch?

Maybe a ghostie floating in air
Or a creepy werewolf with lot's of hair

All you know is that you have to pass by
That "something" and then you try not to cry

Tip toeing up to the grand old oak
The something jumps out at you wearing a cloak!

You scream until you run out of wind!
The something starts laughing... it was only your friend!
