Halloween Is Coming by Fiona Halliday
Every year two weeks prior to Halloween I take photos of my favorite Decorations in various neighborhoods in Saratoga, Los Gatos, San Jose and Half Moon Bay. Most of the photos are taken on the fly while riding my bike.
Creeping, crawling creatures scurry in the night, Rats and bats and spiders, nibble, out of sight, Don’t look too carefully,
You’ll get a nasty fright!
Monsters in the bathroom, witches in the hall, Hairy beasts and demons climbing every wall, You won’t want to catch them,
When they start to fall!
Vampires’ stealthy footsteps cross the wooden floor, Werewolves howling fearfully, beyond your kitchen door,
Don’t look outside now,
You won’t want to find out more!
Zombies with their wild eyes and their soulless grins, Skeletons with their bony cheeks and their missing skins,
Listen for their rattling sounds,
But do not let them in!
Halloween is coming, what a scary night,
Ghosties, ghouls and goblins dancing in the light, Here they are all coming now, feel the spooky beat,
If you listen, hear ‘em shout:
“TRICK OR TREAT!”
