Carved out faces in the light
Snuggle softly in the night
With candy, treats, and sweet delights
Warming each other by the fire
And candles burning bright.
We dress up and have some fun
An eve of spooks and spectral haunts
Outside, an army of lost souls
Laughter ringing on the streets
The colours of the hallow eve
Full of spiders, bats, and ghouls.
Spirits awaken the pagan ways
We roll together in the hay
To the sound of breathing in the shade
Our lips so tender and so sweet
Touching lightly there we lay
In pools of moonlight where we bathed.
Now here comes the enchanting spell
Cryptic words and runes
The tolling of an ancient bell
Witchy laughter bubbling
Skirts rising rustling
Dancing frantic round and round
The lads putting out their cheeks
The maids that sweetly kiss
Arms outstretched inviting
Feet tapping on the floor
Reaching out in a daze
Smiling bouncing lively
In the glow of their embrace.

Happy Halloween!
Halloween is hilarious around here because kids dress up in different customs and go gathering candy throughout the neighbourhood shouting 'trick-or-treat!'. I'm too old for trick-or-treating, but it's great to celebrate anyway on All Hallows' Eve 🎃
Love, passion and halloween, A perfect night where the verses turn dark and love dances to the sound of trick and treat.
Excellent halloween verses.
Happy halloween.🎃
A time for celebration!
Happy Halloween @rinconpoetico7 🎃🥳
The poem and images complement each other wonderfully. Your rhyme scheme works well and does not seem forced. It enhances the thought.
A really well-executed, light piece of Halloween pleasantry. Reminiscent of times past.
You mean you didn't find all the secret codes and cryptic messages I embedded in the piece? 👻
I'm not that clever. Have to look again :)
Excellent. All the codes are in the book of Genesis, if you get stuck. :D
🤣
Everything about Halloween, the fun, the magic and the eerie atmosphere, you captured well 🎃. I like this poem. Happy Halloween 👻
The days here are getting shorter and darker, so it's easy to get in the mood for Halloween 🎃🎉
