I ran through the forest and danced in the trees.
The smell of Toasted Acorn & Oak brought me to my knees.
Children’s laughter made all the lights beautifully glow.
I crept to the fence, looking at the town below.
One by one they knocked at the doors.
Candy in waves hitting like Dice on the shores.
How could I sneak and how could I steal?
The Scary Goodness that would be my next meal.
A Paranormal Pumpkin gave me a ride.
I sipped on Orchard Apple & Spice, to the driver I lied.
I’m headed to town to watch the show,
A Nightmare before Christmas, now hurry up let’s go.
I let out a cackle and covered my mouth.
I tried to hide my identity, but the secret was out.
“Oogie Boogie” you can’t hide, I know that’s you.”
“Take this caramel apple and let that do.”
“Leave those kids alone, there’s fun to be had.”
“Your Ghostly Greetings will just make things bad.”
I cried a single tear and decided to wait.
I’ll visit the Christmas Cottage when they open the gate.
