Hello Friend!
This one is old; not in the competition.
But I just wanted to post a Halloween poem! :)
Glad you enjoyed!

After all, the story though historic goes smooth in this poem, I liked and enjoyed the read, the red carpet imagery, red and black word visuals, fantastic flow of fabulous and funny story; well said, well done. Keep Writing -- DR ALCREATOR

Excellent Poem. Would also make an excellent short story, something to think about, especially with the historical background that you mention in your author notes. I really, really liked it

Comment from AlvinTEthington
A horrifying poem, but, then, that was the point, wasn't it? You handle the narrative poem form quite well and kept my attention riveted through. Good use of the abcb rhyme scheme, thought I found the occasional venture into the abab rhyme scheme a bit jarring, but not enough to lower the rating of this excellent poem. Good juxtaposition of picture and poem.

Alvin! So pleased you enjoyed....only "ventured in the abab rhyme scheme" in one stanza,,,would have written "stay indoors," but the next line is '...lock all the doors," and that just wouldn't do....so I went with what I did....your eyes are just too sharp! Take Care...diane

Hello Mrs. KT,
this is really quite a spooky tale in verse. It's very suitable for this time of the year. As usual, you've done a wonderful job and you've put a lot of effort into it. I wish you lots of luck in the contest. Penelope

This was really scary! I'm sure that's the
reaction you would like from your readers.
It's a well told scary story written in a poetic
way. Very clever.
It was entertaining and fun to read.
I know of a place I won't go and it's to Sullivan's Hill. LOL
Good luck in the contest!

Hi Ms. KT,
WOW - great Halloween poem!
A terrific contest entry!
GOOD LUCK!
Ooooohhhhhh - erie graphic you've chosen.
It works well here to help convey the creepy mood.
HA HA HA-- Gotta love Maude, right?
"Sin?" I think they should've awarded her a heroine's medal! :))) HA HA HA (Not that I advocate violence.)
Thanks so much for sharing!
WRITE ON,
