It was much more than a book, it was a map, a plan, a gateway to the other side. And every year, they anticipated the new adventures held for them.

*

Another year, another flight

the moonlight calls us to the night

A halo mist surrounds her form

collections for the perfect storm

*

The pumpkins sing a song of fright

of thirteen witches, with foresight

Bats circle round a cauldron bubbling

an extra batch needs eyeball doubling

*

A special book a unique binding

a years' memories, rewinding

Her faithful cat sits by her side

another halloween we ride
