It Scares Me, It Scares Me Not: A Halloween Poem from a Kid's Point of View

They excite me, but they scare me not,

Fairies, angels, ghost, goblins and Dracula,

The air smells nothing short of spectacular.

You believe me, you believe me not,

Over the angel wings my siblings fought,

Karen got the angel wings, I got the cloth,

To put over my head, like Casper, I thought.

Reeling back and forth inside my mind,

Are the sweets and all goodies I will find,

When I go aknocking on my neighbors' doors,

One by one, three, four, five sweets and more!

Oh goodie, oh goodie goodie goodie,

I bet I have more sweets in my bag than Kelly,

Kelly thinks she's sweet, she'll get more sweets,

But she forgets, I am quicker on my feet.

Mom says that's NOT the spirit of Halloween,

To celebrate the culture is not a contest to win,

Trick or treating is not about sweets, I wonder,

Well, I guess, there's no time to ponder...

....let's go trick or treating!
