All Hallow's Eve!

Will you, unto your Mommy cleave?

You will if she, Earth did leave!

All I can truly say is hehe!

This Hallow's Eve-

Strange things you may see!

Oh my, what will there be?

Do you believe you may meet a ghost?

Or be the main part of a Zombie's roast!

New Orleans of its Haunts does boast!

Let Marie LaVeaux be your host!

Count Dracula may want you the most,

Keep on you a hammer and wooden post!

Walk into the cemetery in day light!

Wait for the party to begin at night!

Oh you will see such a unique sight!

The guest may give you a hug of fright!

Carry a flashlight to shine bright!

Ghost love to fly as a kite!

Carrying you up to a new height!

Many, unto you will say-

Come over here, and with me play!

They will have you permanently stay!

If you choose to go their way!

No thank -you, and walk away!

To be sure to see the light of day!

Hopefully you may!

One more thing before I go!

Advice you may already know!

Should you see The Grim Reaper!

Tell him he has way to many peepers!

Go away as he gives you the creepers!

Then again, your time may be up-oh jeepers!

You Will be among the newest sleepers!

Oh! May you have such fun!

Remember-on this night; useless is a gun!

Do not allow any thing to make you their hun!

My advice-walk; never run!

I hope you are able to greet the morning sun!

One night a year; then over and done!

Trick or treat-have lots of fun!
