Halloween Party

  For "Friday Writings" we have been invited to write poetry or prose set on Halloween. 

 . . .

   

 

       Party Time 

Went to a Halloween party 

Dressed our best for the occasion 

Masks of lamp shades, white dangling cords 

Plugs wrapped so no one plugged us in 

Parked in back, sneaked in the front door 

Hoping no one recognized us 

We gazed around we were amazed 

Orange Pumpkins danglin on ropes 

Along the ceiling wall to wall 

From corner to corner they were 

Everyone dressed in camouflage 

Bright  colors matching the flowers 

Flowers all colors taped to walls 

And some were ghosts, wolves, and tigers 

 Cinderellas and Beyonces 

We had six dances then judgements 

Hopeful, lined in a ring around 

All had worked so hard, prizes good 

Cute Cinderella first, Wolfe next 

Came the Lamp Shades we came in last
