All Hallow’s Eve
by Emily Louise Rua
Sudden shrieks fill the night
The revelry has begun
My street is alive with titillating terrors
The familiar place I knew is gone with the sun
A macabre world is here
Surrounded in mystery and shadow
Candlelit and ghostly
The Witching Hour is upon us
Jack-o-lanterns grin
Skeletons dance in the autumn breeze
Ghouls run door to door with devious intentions
As the dead come out to play
Sweets may prevent debauchery
For a time
But as the night wears on, my light might run out
No one is truly safe from fright
A harvest moon rises over the trees
Cool apple cider in my hand
The magic of the evening bewitches me
All Hallows Eve
