Very interesting. It looks like a rhyming list of every horror movie or story ever written. And yes it is used to scare us it's probably one of these. Well done.

This is so cute and an enjoyable read for the little ones, celebrating the Halloween night.
They can always recite this poem, when they go from door to door on their Trick or Treat adventures on Halloween night:)

Excellent inspiring artwork! Sounds so simple and easy when read out loud. But, I know that it isn't easy to come up with something so clever and engaging. I keep trying though! One day... I'm very stubborn. mikey

Cute little poem. I like the eclectic mix of frights. Good rhythm with the stuttered pattern. Very festive. Great Halloween poem. Gretchen

Halloween is a great inspiration for many writings like yours. Nora is a fine artist; hope that Sawyer has recovered from his mishap (following a torrent of tears?) Evi

Thank you, Evi, for your generous review. Yep, he screamed long enough to make Nora feel guilty and then he had enough of crying and got back to playing with her. LOL :-) Brooke

A graphically expressive poem about Halloween.a fine drawing of Sawyer crying ,somehow echoes the halloween mood .I wonder if he cried out loud, or did he put up a brave front and and contain his pain within pouted lips? You have let out the ghouls that gnash their teeth with a resounding clatter.

Aw... Poor Sawyer! It is a fine drawing of him indeed, and I can see the resemblance. Your Halloween poems, Brooke, are legendary, and this is no exception, Giddy

Thanks so much, Giddy :-) Poor Sawyer screamed for a minute, just long enough to make Nora feel guilty, and then he got back to playing with her :-) Brooke

This was pretty scary poem with this a visual display of what Halloween can bring. Really wonderful, descriptive drawings that Nora put out for us here..Thanks for sharing.

Hope it can be safe for all this 31st. And can be the makings for a fun time for young & old.

Thanks so much, Caressa. Luckily, Sawyer is so young that he only leaves the house with Momma and Dada in tow, so he will be safe :-) Brooke

Ah, the budding artist--I am glad that Sawyer was able to transfer his pain to paper. I admired the way you connected the scene with a scary Halloween surrounded by more "buckets" of alliteration! Cheers- Joan, from Boston

Thanks so much, Joan. The drawing is by Nora. For a kid not yet two and a half to have drawn this would be somewhat of a miracle :-) Brooke

Thanks for the correction--I miss read your notes. Hope Sawyer's noggin is no longer throbbin'- ;) Joan

He screamed bloody murder for one minute and then went back to playing. LOL He just had a great weekend going to a couple different pumpkin patches/Halloween events :-) Brooke
