Taking Flight

Halloween night
Time to take flight!

Dressed all in black
Striped stockings, pointed hat

Leather button up shoes.

Grab cape and broom
We'll be meeting soon

Applying red lipstick
Frizz up your hair, QUICK!

We're ready for our Halloween cruise.

Under the willow tree
We gather, wild and free

What a sight we are
Sisters from near and far

To our cats we all bid adieux

Forming a circle, off we go!
What will happen, no one knows

Soaring high above the tree tops
Wishing we never had to stop!

Nothing can beat this glorious view!

JUST A THOUGHT

Is it me, or does the Autumn season not seem like it used to? We used to have warm days, with cool breezes, and dry air. You would smell leaves burning, and hear chain saws in the distance. Maybe a lawn mower, or someone hammering a roof on. I loved the smell of the dry leaves. This season used to last quite awhile. Now, it seems like we may have only one or two days here and there that are like this. We now have hot days that turn rainy and cold. We go from Summer into frosty weather. I miss the old days of Autumn. I hope they come back.

THAT MAGICAL NIGHT

The sun goes down
And all over town
The creatures begin to emerge

Up the street they go
From door to door they tow
Their goody bags filled to the brim

Porch lights shine bright
Oh what a sight
What's that in front of the moon?

A witch it might be!
A real sight to see!
I can hear her cackle and scream!

A magical night
of fun and fright
The kiddies don't want to go home.
