9 Halloween Poems

1. A Time of Fun
   Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
   
   Halloween is a time of fun
   The days are shorter and there's less sun.
   But children look forward to the night
   They dress up and go out with a light.
   
   Door to door they do go
   Praying that it does not snow.
   Trick or treat they sing out loud
   Sometimes alone, or in a crowd.
   
   Their costumes are admired by parents
   Admiring the children's creative talents.
   The treat bags get so full
   But the children the bags they do pull.
   
   Halloween a time children love to see
   A time they can dress up as they please.
   Treats of many different kinds
   Is one thing that is on their minds.

2. Pumpkins Glow
   Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
   
   Halloween whispers, hushed by shadows draped,
   As candles bathe the night in softened gold,
   Pumpkins carved with care, by hands of children shaped,
   Their innocence and mirth, a tale to be told.
   
   Each flickering flame, a light in the dark,
   Guiding us through veils of costumed delight.
   As pumpkins glow, we sense souls' gentle spark,
   On this haunted eve, truth masks the fright.

3. Awaiting Halloween
   Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
   
   In October, the moon casts its captivating glow,
   Children eagerly await Halloween's show.
   Costumes stitched with love and crafty wiles,
   Each detail planned with mischievous smiles.
   
   Treat or treat, they venture door to door,
   With hearts pounding like never before.
   Imagination soars on this magical night,
   Halloween's arrival, a child's pure delight.

4. Trick or Treat
   Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
   
   You hear them say it, "trick or treat,
   Please give me something sweet.'
   And when you do a big thank you
   And off to the next house, they do continue.
   
   By the time they arrive back home
   They have enough candy to fill a dome
   Happy are the children this day
   They love to get treats this way.




5. Jolly Signs
   Poet: Marjorie Dillion
   
   Fields are full of tepees
   Built of cornstalks brown:
   Woods are gay with squirrels
   Where the nuts rain down.
   
   Fairy, silken airplanes,
   Milkweed sends adrift;
   Fruit trees offer freely
   Autumn's gracious gift.
   
   Pumpkins look so knowing,
   Night wind's growing keen;
   And all these signs are saying,
   "Time for Halloween."

6. Once A Year
   Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
   
   Halloween comes but once a year
   A time of fun and a time of fear
   Ghosts and goblins arrive at our door
   And often with a great roar.
   
   Trick or treat, they all say
   They take a treat and are on their way.
   And then we see more coming down the road
   Some look like they are going to explode.
   
   But then the princess and the frog
   And even a cat and a dog
   Rings our doorbell with a smile
   As we look at the crazy hairstyles.
   
   It's a night of pretend
   Children never want to end.
   But parents are glad it's only once a year
   When it's over they do cheer.




7. Harvest Moon's Light
   Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
   
   Beneath the harvest moon's gentle light,
   We venture out on Halloween night.
   Its radiant glow, a guiding beam,
   Illuminating the path of our dream.
   
   With every step, a sense of delight,
   Guided by the moon's enchanting light.
   Together we embrace the spooky fun,
   Under the harvest moon, as one.

8. The Moon Is Shining
   Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
   
   The moon is shining bright
   To cast a shadow on Halloween night.
   Pumpkins growing in the field
   Crops are in, we got a good yield.
   
   The time of year that is spooky to some
   And for others, they have loads of fun.
   Happy Halloween to you
   If you're scared, we will come to your rescue.

9. Just For Kids?
   Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
   
   Just kids that dress up at Halloween?
   My wife dressed up as a queen.
   And then my neighbor did appear
   He was dressed in something weird.
   
   It is not just for kids to have some fun
   Adults dress up and the fun has begun
   The child in them comes alive
   And in costume, they do arrive.
   
   No matter what your age
   Or where you are or what stage
   It is always fun to pretend
   With a costume party to attend.
