Preparations must be made

Candles lit, pull the shades

Silhouettes of scary scenes

Costume, yes, on cane I lean

Make-up green, nose with wart

Eerie sounds out on the porch

Witch’s brew bubbles at the ready

Treats and cobwebs for the steady

Children who will come tonight

Trick or treating, a delicious sight!

Running quickly from door to door

Trying to collect more and more.
