Hobgoblins, Witches and Ghosts

 By: George Puccini ©

 

Hobgoblins, Witches and Ghosts,

I don't know which I dread the most:
The spooky faces on All Hallows Eve,
 
The sinister eyes that gen'rally leave
Me weak in the knees and cold to the bone!
Hobgoblins, Witches and Groans.
 
Hobgoblins, Witches and Ghosts, -
I don't know which I dread the most:
The flying things and dancing bones,
The creatures that lurk outside my home,
 
The black cats that hiss and spit and fume!
Hobgoblins, Witches and Brooms.
Hobgoblins, Witches and Ghosts, -
I don't know which I dread the most:
Gremlins and elves attacking my door,
 
Devils and demons and monsters or
Ugly green witches in long black hats!
Hobgoblins, Witches and Bats.
 

Hobgoblins, Witches and Ghosts, -

I don't know which I dread the most:
Those strange pumpkin faces that suddenly seem
To light up the windows on each Halloween,
Loud threats of mayhem stilled quickly by sweets!
Hobgoblins, Witches and Treats!
 
Hobgoblins, Witches and Ghosts, -

I don't know which I dread the most:

The tummy that aches from too much fill,
The mess that remains once the hoard is killed,
The half-eaten apple that molds 'neath the couch!
Hobgoblins, Witches and Grouch.
 

Hobgoblins, Witches and Ghosts, -

I don't know which I dread the most:
The hours I spend cleaning from my lawn
Eggshells and wrappers when ev'ryone's gone;
Then, when I'm finished look up to see
Toilet-tissue trimming on ev'ry tree!
