From Mom
Candy corn and chocolate
Taffy and Caramel squares
Ghosts and witches
Frankenstein scares
Screams, laughs
Kids with no cares
It's Halloween time again
I remember the days
of my trick or treat
I pranked the poor souls
Who with candy did not meet
My sugary expectations
Shouted with elation
"Trick or Treat (Hoping secretly for the trick)
I watch my kids dress
I see smiles, hear whispered plans
I let my old tricks "slip"
To smiles, and gasps behind hands
Now they know my secrets
Halloween is their magical land
One day they'll share my secrets with their little ghouls.
