In the moon’s pale, ghostly gleam, Halloween night, a wondrous dream, Jack-o’-lanterns, their smiles so wide, Flicker and dance by the dark countryside.
Beneath the shadows, creatures emerge, Goblins, witches, all converge, Their laughter and cackles fill the air, As magic weaves through the moon’s soft glare.
Costumes of wonder, a magical guise, Children’s laughter under starry skies, Trick-or-treaters on a candy quest, In search of treats, they are the best.
Haunted houses, a spine-tingling fright, In the heart of the eerie, the heart of the night, Ghosts and ghouls, a haunting sight, In the realm of darkness, they take flight.
Bats on the wing, in the velvet night, With wings spread wide, they take their flight, A symphony of eerie sounds they make, As the world of the supernatural awakes.
Halloween, a night so grand, In every heart, in every land, A time for magic, a time for fun, When the spooky and sweet become one.
So on this night of ghouls and glee, Embrace the spirit of mystery, For Halloween, a magical theme, Is more than just a holiday, it’s a dream.
