I am sure all the Halloween delights will be enjoyed by your grandson, probably just up his street. Hope he is better after his knock. Good use of alliterative language, excellent rhyming and a most enjoyable read. Faye

gnashing of teeth,
wailings of fright,
ghouls on the loose --
Halloween night.
Hi Brooke, a beautiful song in a poem, so fluently is your poem to read, so beautifully rhymed. Children and grown ups will so enjoy that poem.
I wander what Sawyer will be wearing. Miss him. Love Terry xoxo

Yay! Halloween is around the corner!. Time to get my human costume... great alliteration and though slightly gruesome, a joyful celebration of Halloween.

Yikes! I think I'll just stay at home and hide underneath my bed. Hoping that I'll wake up tomorrow and not find out I'm dead. I will check both my legs to see if they are there. Hoping that they did not run away from some scare. Sorry Brooke, but you always inspire me to write, write. My job here is to review and enjoy your poetry. Which I always do. I fear I may have run out of superlatives to describe your work and so to cover this I respond with whatever. LOL. This poem is another fine example of the qualative work on your part. Cangratulations

His drawing is fine for such a young age. So is your Halloween poem. They complement each other so well. Nice rhyme too.

Hi Brooke
What a great Halloween poem. Your grandson's picture has a great deal of emotion attached to it, and the fiery red emphasises this further... Very strong picture for a young man.
I think this line...
'galleons of ghosts'
should win a contest all on its own LOL Terrific line!
It is so childlike, and yet sits perfectly with your well composed poem.
kind regards
tracey :)

Hi Brooke :)
I enjoyed your Halloween poem. I especially liked the rhythm, it reminded me of a train (maybe a ghost train!)
Fab use of alliteration throughout in this atmospheric poem.
Love Nora's picture. Is Nora about 6 or 7? I'm guessing because the hands on her drawings look like hands that my Katie draws, like open flowers!
Kind regards, Debra :) x

Scary stuff here, with alliteration, no less. Forget about scaring the kids... I'll have nightmares from THIS! LOL! Nora did a terrific job capturing Sawyer's expression, didn't she? LOL! :)
