WHEN IT'S HALLOWEEN......by KPRIMM

When the wind blows cold
with a rustle of leaves
and a chill runs over your skin

When the black cat prowls
near a gaggle of spooks
and the witching hour begins

When the coffins creak wide
and open thier lids
freeing those sleeping inside

When the children all gather
this magical night
with thier eyes and thier mouths gaping wide

When the lit jack o lantern
aglow on the porch
stares out with it's wide toothy grin

When the candy flows freely
from neighbors unknown
but on this night they all become friends

when werewolves abound
and skeletons lurk
and watch as you pass down the street

When your never quite sure
of just who that is
or what it is under that sheet

When creatures galore
jump out to scare
and nothing is quite what it seems

When this magical night
happens just once each year
the magic that's called Halloween

Trick or treat.....by KPRIMM

Trick or treat
smell my feet
give me something good to eat

That's the music that you hear
up and down the street

So much power in those words
and OH what joy it brings
candied apples,packs of gum,and other tasty things

oarnge witch whistles
candy corn,some wax vampire's teeth

a Snickers bar, a Milky way
and Hey! right theres a Heath

A pixie stick, a Mary Jane
and theres a Baby Ruth

A mound of candy treasures
in my pillow case of loot

I really love those M&M'S
don't touch my Tootsie Rolls

And thirteen Bit o' Honeys
can never have too much of those

So get your group and don your sheets
and loudly yell it TRICK OR TREAT

Those three magic little words
Let's all yell TRICK OR TREAT!

Lament of a zombie....by KPRIMM

once upon a time i guess i looked alot like you
but now i am a zombie and my flesh is turning blue.

I've gone to meet my maker, to nature paid her price
I layed down for a dirtnap, now my head is filled with mice.

I cannot eat,icannot drink, my tongue has turned dark green
I only fit in once a year,and that night's Halloween.

I thought i felt emotions swelling up inside of me,
but that was just an earthworm as it wriggled to get free.

I shambled down the street unsure of wich way i should go
I have no mind to make up...at least I don't think so.

So as your walking down the street watch for a piece of me,
Theres always something falling off just send it back to me.

I now live in a graveyard but theres nothing i can do,
Be respectful when you tread here or i just might come for you!

Scratch scratch scratch.....by KPRIMM

Scratch scratch scratch
i can hear it on the wall
it really creeps me out a bit
at night time most of all

scratch scratch scratch
at the window by my head
i think i hear the scratching
coming from beneath my bed.

scratch scratch scratch
can you hear it on the floor?
i hope it's not a monster
lurking just behind the door.

scratch scratch scratch
it's getting louder drawing near
maybe i should jump up
and high tail it out of here

scratch scratch scratch
now it's much too late to run
i think it's right beside me
and i think that i am done

scratch scratch scratch
i can't tell just where it's at
good grief it's not a monster
it's just george.....our cat.

Nothing but Footprints....BY:KPRIMM

They talk in quiest whispers of the grave up on the hill

They shunned the place long years ago, and many fear it still

None will wlak the grounds at night especially Halloween

Scared to death of sounds they hear and ghostly footprints seen

An innocent was murdered and they threw him in the grave

They took him from his sweetheart and her love she freely gave

No one ever sees him they just hear his mournful sound

But you'll see where he's walking by his footprints on the ground

He wanders sad and lonely now without his lover true

But walk the graveyard late at night and he'll spend time with you

Lonliness resides in every fiber of his being

Only now remembered by his ghostly footprints seen

Did you see a shadow? I think I heard a sound

All at once appearing ghostly footprints on the ground

There's nowhere here for you to run, no place you'll be safe

The ghostly footprints follow you and match you pace for pace

Step by step at night he walks, trapped here by their crime

Ghostly footprints mark the ground until the end of time

Brand new poem, based off the idea in Poltergiest. I hope you all like it.

They Only Moved The Stones.....BY:KPRIMM

They built a brand new subdivision
With lots of brand new homes
They welcomed brand new families to their dreams

But shortly after moving in
They started hearing moans
And from the basement came the sounds of screams

They'd only had the house a week
When things began to move
And doors began to open by themselves

Pictures turned upon the walls
They saw deep claw like grooves
And religious objects thrown down from the shelves


The basement door would slam and bang
They heard crying from below
And in the attic thumps and bumps were heard

The upstairs hallway they avoided
None would dare to go
A Haunted house..but surely that's absurd

Ghostly figures from the basement
Walked the basement stairs
And started walking freely through the home

A graveyard right below the house
Where bodies laid in pairs
They only took the time to move the stones
