“Hello Autumn”

Red, gold, green, purple, orange, yellow and brown

Your colors are perfectly beautiful

Hello Autumn, nice to see you again

 

Landscapes are bright and colorful

Trees look alive

Hello Autumn, nice to see you again

 

The air is so fragrant and clean

The wind sings with the colors of the trees

Hello Autumn, so glad you are here

 

Leaves on trees brighten the mood

While holidays start to approach far too soon

Hello Autumn, so glad you are here again

 

Pumpkin pies, jack-o-lanterns, pecans, and evergreens

Your colors are on display for all to see, smell, and taste

Hello Autumn

 

The time we spend together is bittersweet

The time we spend together is far too short

Hello Autumn, wish you would never leave

 

Red, gold, green, purple, orange, yellow and brown

As we part and your beauty Falls, even the trees look sad

O goodbye Autumn, ‘til we meet again

 

“All Hallows Eve”

Long dark streets

Houses decorated to scare

All Hallows Eve approaches

 

Jack-o-lanterns being born

Skeletons on display

All Hallows Eve approaches

 

Kids will be in costumes, masks, and capes

To be who they always dreamed to be for just one night

All Hallows Eve approaches

 

Ghosts, goblins, ghouls, zombies, witches, vampires, bats, and other dark things

Appear in the night ready for frightening good fun

All Hallows Eve approaches

 

Get ready for the night

Be ready for a fright

Dress for the occasion

Stomachs at the ready

All Hallows Eve approaches

 

Best not be scared of things that go bump in the night

For they only last from dusk till dawn

And in the morning you better pray your skin is not white,

For the morning light may be the last

OOOOWWWW HAHAHAHAHAHA!!

Happy Halloween!
