Mary, Mary, quite contrary;
in your garden, you he'll bury.
At night when you lie down to sleep.
Right after you're through counting sheep.
Into your dreams this clown will creep!
**
Mary, Mary quite contrary,
of this clown you should be wary.
A sight to see the town folk said.
With razor fangs and hair blood red.
Your worst nightmare, your worst dread!
^^
Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
your escapes not arbitrary.
To steal your soul's his intent.
He loves to torture and torment
and your demise you can't prevent!
**
Mary, Mary, quite contrary;
Pennywise he's really scary!
Knows how to make your garden grow.
"Cockle shells" among'st each torso;
at planting, this 'bozo's' a pro~

G'day Thad,
Mary, Mary, quite contrary
Why do clowns scare you so?
With choppers like that, I’d be scared too
Of them sharp pointy things in a row.
Would never have thought of Mary getting roped in for Halloween, plus never understood why people were afraid of clowns until....Oh so well writ. Thanks.

For your cool comment!! 👍 🤡

There is something inherently sinister about clowns that goes back to well before the time of court jesters .. I could write a thesis on it .. in fact I did once .. However, I digress .. Now, where woz I .. Oh' yes, this is a great Halloween poem Thad that has some great credentials, not least the prettiness of it as it lays on the page but also is built atop of a firm foundation and from which, it rises so rhythmically ..
