Trick or Treat

A happy goblin with a sausage nose
haunted pirates putting on clever shows

Compilation of costumed kids lurking about
looting candy and money on a neighborhood route

A scientist who might study nephelometry
an acumen trickster stops, giggling with glee

A ghost who is no illusion this night
spinning and whirling out in plain sight

A superhero whose eye rays can split deuterium
or a Hulk who can punch through solid titanium

A girl collects another handful of bubble gum
Holiday euphoria and both kids and adults succumb

Every last fragment of candy scoured at last
another Halloween night has finally passed

Since I am traveling for work today, my wife volunteered to write a poem for my blog while I am gone.

Messy

Snot, peanut butter, and some sort of sticky red stuff
Gosh something smells in here
What is this on my hands? Its brown….. did I remember to wash my hands?
Crumbs, crayons, hard pieces of dried out cheese
Gosh it smells in here
Leaves from out back, dirt and sand on the floor
Gosh something smells in here
Sweaty socks lying on the floor
Gosh it smells in here
Wait! I just found cheerios, crackers, gummy bears and cookie crumbs and more dried cheese in the couch cushions
Gosh something smells in here
There you are standing there cute as can be
My tiny little sweet all for me
