Completely forgot when I posted to mention this is part of The Spooky Season Challenge by S. A. Crawford. You can find the challenge here:
Summer sun begins to fade
And the air begins to chill
A spark grows deep inside of me
It’s my favorite time of the year!
.
Days grow shorter and nights longer
Leaves turn from green to gold
Crisp leaves crunch under booted feet
Dew hangs on grass and trees
.
Ghosts and pumpkins are on the porch
Cobwebs, scarecrows make a spooky host
Witches and pirates roam the streets
It's time to ask for tricks or treats
.
Walking silently through the night
The shadows grow so dark
A frantic chill runs up my spine
I celebrate - it’s spooky time!
