Halloween Past
I recall the Halloween past
Some forty years ago, I think
Be grateful they have past
Behavior then was evil
Children made costumes then
Dressed in what they made
Becoming hobos, Indians, Fat men
Witches, a big baby in a diaper,
Or a squaw with her braids
Children carried an arsenal
Soap for windows
Corn for throwing
Toilet paper for trees
Eggs for combat
Dung in a paper bag
For lighting on the teachers lawn
(Of course they stomped it out)
Mischief was the claim to fame
Outhouse's were overturned
Volkswagens were set on porches
Hay was set ablaze
If a house set empty this night
It was likely to find combustion
The children of the world today
They're not so bad it seems
If you will remember then
Children now should dress
In Angel themes

Paranormal experts say people reach the peak of their ability to see ghosts when they're 7 years old.
Red leaves and yellow leaves, orange leaves and brown, leaves are dancing everywhere
happily dancing down.
