Another poem about

Waiting in the dark

Shadows stretch as night falls.

People hide behind their walls,

Shades drawn, shutters closed,

And doors are locked in fear.

What lurks to raise such fear.

Is it Ghosts or Goblins?

Is it Wolves or Witches.

The monsters or magical?

A knock on the door and

you slowly open it, to seal your fate.

What lurks on your steps?

Who is it you bribe to leave you alone?

The creatures shout their demands.

Is that Captain America and Iron man?

A little Wonder Woman, oh my, the Hulk.

It’s candy for everyone!

Happy Halloween!

Many people are afraid of both. And many are afraid of even smaller things – insects, arachnids, birds, mice, rabbits… Fears usually stem from a lack of understanding, such as thinking all spiders are dangerous, birds are dirty, the connection between rodents and the plague, etc. And possibly too many horror movies. :sweat_smile:

My first thought was this. :joy:

Lovely poem, though. :black_heart:
