Halloween Poems

I write poems about lots of things. Below are a few Halloween themed poem that I've written about the creepy crawlies, going Trick or Treating and about that favorite of Fall candies ... the Candy Corn! I've interspersed the poetry with Halloween themed candy and a classic scary movie.

I hope you enjoy this Original Poetry that celebrates the fun fall holiday of Halloween.

There's something creeping up my arm

And I don't know if it will do no harm

Especially on the day of October Last

When bizarre things have come to pass

Candy corn or witches teeth are

Really just the same

Sugar, corn syrup, colors to

Represent the name

Neither one is good for the

Enamel of your teeth

So chew a few, be mindful

Of the smile that lies beneath

I used to love to Trick or Treat

Collecting sugared things to eat

And covering up my normal self

As gypsy queen or pirate elf

Today some kids' events are staged

At shopping malls, safe nights are waged

With costume contests to compete

Instead of going Trick or Treat

Wow, and this film was released 40 years ago.

This Halloween a party there'll be

With spooky decor for all to see

Like flying bats and ghosts aglow

Your party will be a fine creep show
