HALLOWEEN.....

poem by: Frank Hornby .
Written on Oct 22, 2017

"Jollamolla custard, green snot pies,
all mixed together with a dead dogs eyes,
Gathered around the cauldron, warlocks dancing...with grinning cowled witches cackling, and prancing,
bathed in the shadowy moonlight, of a dark, and evil sky.
...a scary midnight ritual will strangely mystify....
The night air is filled with obnoxious, toxic putrid smells,
and the hypnotic chanting of sickly satanic demonic spells.
Bats, rats, and grotesque disfigured ghouls,
a fright night controlled, by the Devil, and his rules.
So be very, very careful, because this may all be seen,
if you dare to venture out.... on the darkest night called Halloween."

You have a natural talent Frank as shown in this poem, you have employed some very descriptive language, combined it with humor and come up with a little gem~entertaining.
