This meets the contest requirements beautifully as you deliver a well penned rhymed Halloween verse perfect for the kiddies. The warning message is artfully disguised yet still profoundly apparent. Good luck in the judging and thank you very much for sharing it.

Thanks for appealing to the "kiddy" in each of us! I enjoyed your Halloween, sonnet-like poem. I enjoyed all of your rhymes and speaking in the voice of a witch. Cheers and best wishes in the contest- Joan

Thanks so much, Joan. Yes, times have sure changed. When I was a kid I roamed the town at will on Halloween, but now, children are either accompanied by an adult or like here, in Toronto, there's an actual van that patrols, watching for 'stranger-danger'. :(

Ah, nice job, Dawn. And I thought I'd managed a scary one. This is much more menacing. Perfect construction, of course, and a well made point. Halloween is not the time to be concerned, for parents. Best of luck in the contest :) Craig

A very well-written Halloween poem about the witches that seem friendly but still scares children away with their strange way of talking and holding on to their brooms all the time.

Oh, my goodness. Quite the Halloween poem. I think it is a winner for this time of year. It will scare very young readers. The rest of us will just feel a little uncomfortable around people with cute dimples for a while. I love the opposite ideas here, such as "Halloween makes witches sick." It made me want to read it again!

Yep, There's things worse than Halloween
witches. This is a good warning to children
to beware of stranger and not judge them
by appearances. Well done, Dawn.

This poem was cleverly constructed to make an excellent contest entry. he picture is remarkable and you stuck to the Halloween theme. Your words are well chosen and they rhyme nicely.

Yikes! They keep them caged until Easter? I think I'd rather be cooked right away and not have that dread hanging over me.
I can see from the photo that this would be believed to be a kindly old lady.
