DEVIL'S NIGHT
Don't go out on Devil's Night.
Stay in your bed and keep on the light.
Little demons and ghouls have their fun all right,
outside on the streets this Devil's Night.
You don't want to know what mischief they cause.
On Halloween Eve they run without pause,
flying and laughing, and breaking the laws,
you really don't want to see the mischief they've caused.
Please heed my words, stay under the covers,
and tell your friends and your sisters, and of course your brothers.
Stay in bed, don't even peek through the shutters,
'cause a goblin or ghost may spook you to stutters.
Just wait until daybreak on Halloween Day,
when you know all the ghouls and ghosts are away.
They hate the daylight, "it's no fun," they say.
So just please, please wait to Trick or Treat on Halloween Day.
THE MONSTER WHO WAS MISUNDERSTOOD
This is a tale of poor old Frank --
Frank the monster, not Tom, Rich, or Hank.
He was created by a scientist in a great house.
A house on a mountain, much too big for a mouse.
There in the basement, the docter toiled night and day,
with the help of his friend Igor, who had little to say.
Finally when all was assembled like a bike,
a bolt of lightning gave dear Frank his new life.
He sat up from the table where he laid for months,
scratched his square head, and said "I'm ready for lunch!"
He crashed through the door, and went into town,
where he arrived at the diner and tried to sit down.
But everyone screamed , and left their plates hot.
Even the cooks ran away without their prized pots.
So Frank could have nothing to quell his belly's rumble,
not a burger, or fries, or even Apple Pie Crumble.
He was almost in tears, and very, very sad,
and walked into the streets where everyone went mad,
and screamed in horror at Frank's sight.
No one had seen such a thing in their life.
Frank tried to explain, "I'm just hungry, that's all.
I mean you no harm, even though I am tall."
A little girl saw him where she sat on the corner,
and thought, he's not so scary, infact he might be an orphan.
So she walked up to Frank and tugged at his sleeve,
and said, "My name is Cinthia, Cindy if you please."
He said, "I'm just a little hungry, and don't know where I am."
"That's O.K.," Cindy answered, and pulled out some ham--
ham for a sandwich she was waiting to make,
and she pulled out two slices of bread freshly baked.
They sat on the corner to a half sandwich each,
both happy, and smiling as a sunny day peach.

HALLOWEEN
I 'm making a witches brew,
Slinging the animals from the zoo,
A little girl yells, a cows bell,
It's so good please don't tell.
A cats claw that tastes like war,
A clinch of hair from the tidy law,
A button from the wizards cloak,
A couple of muscles from the womens bloke,
Now all these mixed together,
It'll soon taste like shiny leather.
All I need to make it more,
Sling in an old apple core.
And now it's done, it weighs a ton.
Now off I go with my witches brew,
Down the street I'm coming through,
I'm going by, the babies cry,
I am looking around to find the wizard,
Too turn him into a long green lizard!

School's Ball
On Halloween all that beams is a little yellow light.
I go to school and on my way I see all ghost and ghouls
I wonder why these things are out and all are running about.
It's not time for the trick or treaters to come, I wonder where their from?
But when I looked all around the things that I saw were just heading to the school's ball.
My my my oh what a scare. I wonder if all my friends will be there?

Black Cat's Stare
Green eyes with their mysterious stare,
This black cat is sure to scare.
