Not Today, Thank You!

orchidee

Not today, thank you!

Not any day in fact

Halloween tales, I mean

With ghostliness and spookiness

 

Don't ya now?

It's me in disguise at Halloween

And having a bad hair say

Creeping about with me syphon

That's full of water

Ready to add water to ya tipple

 

And Fido in his cape and mask

As 'The Masked Avenger'

Checking them poems

In case ya 'forget' conveniently

To mark 'em 18+ when they should be!

 

He don't bite

But his bark is worse than his bite - if he did bite!

 

Give me the next day anytime

Hallowmas - All Saints Day

I'll probably sing on that day

As on every day

 

Aww, why they say it's a Halloween 'trick'

Orchi singing to ya, that is

Cos I tricks ya into thinking

That I can really sing!

What could be worse?

More terrifying? more scary?

 

Only - having to watch a week of 'Eastenders'

If not in UK - don't ask

It's too ghastly to expalin that TV soap!

Don;t find it online

You'll never recover

Never be the same again! lol.

Heehee.

            I believe you may have succeeded in the closure of all Halloween festivities, orchi - you deserve a medal and a special entry in the book of remembrance...well some book of remembrance somewhere anyway...

              Thanks Dave. Yep, I didn't fancy a supper of eye of newt and leg of frog. Summat like that anyway!

              I was a little Catholic grade school girl, and we always got All Saints Day off. They said it was to celebrate a feast day, but I think it was probably to prevent teachers from having to deal with a class full of kids on a sugar high from Halloween candy. Such a fun write my friend, truly enjoyed every line.
