Poetry: Halloween

by Mary Costigan

Created on: October 26, 2008

They come

In the shadows

Of darkness

Prowling the streets

The porches

And homes

Cowardly pumpkin bandits

No faces

No names

Smashing our pumpkins

Then laughing

No shame

Running away

While the world still sleeps

Leaving behind

Chunks of pumpkin

And seeds

Good grief
