Author's Note: The idea for this creative piece came about while I was reflecting on previous holidays. I was longing for the spontaneity,excitement, and suspense of Halloween while staring at the melting snow on the first day back from the holiday break.
Bloodcurdling masks
rest upon the most innocent as halos hover above the darkest.
Citizens of all ages spontaneously ringing doorbells like none other. Three effortless words roll off their
tongues like a bowling ball rolling down its aisle. Little kids eat candies
that crumble on their festive outfits allowing it to messily smother.
Teenagers quest to find a spine chilling haunted house. Friends squeal while
neighbors glorify a baby disguised as a mouse.
Even after hearing
the harmless "trick-or-treat", you shall not be deceived by
those who saunter on all Hallows Eve.
