Happy Halloween

In this house behind closed doors, mystery hides beneath old floors. With goblin's, ghoul's, ghost's, and witches, with vampire's, werewolve's, and scarecrow stitches. On this night, a chilled wind howls, maybe catch the wolfman prowl. With children, candy, smiling pumpkin's and more. They can't quite tell what hides behind this old oak door. In my tree a skeleton hangs, with little finger's my doorbell rang.Trick or treat, the children cry. Alright, alright a masked man sighs, let me get your sweets, my dear, have no fear, here's your candy, right in here. With smiling faces the children leave, so have yourselves a happy, hollows eve.

Favorite Poets: I have many favorite poets but I like Poe the most.I would also feel wrong if I didn't include music to this also, for I find it to be of great inspiration.These are lyrics to a song by Monster Magnet called Ozium, it never fails to put me in the writing mood and thought I would share it, lol., " I'm up to my brain in the mire of an ancient swamp, Pteranadon smiles at me and flies up to god, Baby let me drink deep from your globes of reality, Writhe your naked ass to the mindless groove, baby give your tongue a taste and follow me up to my room, the bullgod has your head, and baby thats just fine, now it is time, we became the mighty cell, wrap those hungry jacks? to the mindless groove, they say we've got a lifetime, but we know that ain't true, I will not be denied, I will not be denied, baby, the faster you gyrate the faster we'll be there, arms up overhead, a goddess in the ancient song, work that mighty world to the mindless groove, they say weve got a life time but we know that ain't true, I will not be denied, I will not be denied, they say weve got a lifetime, but we know that ain't true, I will not be denied I will not be denied"

Happy scary times...

Halloween... title not holloween! The write is ok, needs some tightening up for the flow... I am going to re-write part of it, see what you think about it... anyway, it is just an example of the tightening I spoke of. In this house behind closed doors, mystery hides beneath old floors. With goblins, ghouls, ghosts and witches, vampires, werewolves and scarecrow stitches. On this cool night, a brisk wind howls, might just catch the wolfman's prowl. With children, candy, smiling pumpkins and more, they can't quite tell what's behind this door. cool, brisk, chilled... all in the same line = redundancy the apostrophes show possession, not needed to pluralize. Hope this helps, now I'm off to read your forum page. Richard

NIght of the Zombies....

Hello to the KING! I liked this poem - because in Africa, we don't celebrate Halloween and this has succinctly described the essence of "what it is"... (fictionally speaking of course!) Hope you enjoy yours! THanks for the write Bonita j
