Little Gobble-ins
Little gobble-ins
innocently say
things like
punkin, and
hanitizer, and
then proceed
to dismember
perfectly sweet
kernels of
freshly harvested
candy corn.
They nibble
the tip, and
incise the wide
stripe, saving
the best yellow
taste for last.

Thanks to Danae, Linda, Sarah, Charlotte, Tammy, Kylie, and Jackie & Matt for suggesting their favorite Halloween words and phrases. I hope that I didn't forget anyone! It was fun to incorporate those with inspiration from pictures recently posted on Facebook, as well as the images of my own children when they were young – as vivid in my mind as they are in the photo albums…not to mention the fact that I still remember many happy hours participating in post trick-or-treating inventories and swapping sessions.
