^ A Bump in The Night ^

halloween fun

Darkness

silently swept

across the land.

stealing the sun's

final celestrial stand.

The silvery moon awoke

from daytime slumber

with a milky fullness,

lacking no hunger.

Light freckled across

a cool purple sky,

as stars flashed a firey

glow upon high.

Demented beings with

mean hideous faces

suddenly appeared

evil revealed itself in

in many places

 

Tho~the dark dusk air

of this mysterious night

shrouded all

discoveries of day,

And the ever

clouded darkness

'twas here to stay

To haunt

To fright

and most scariest of all around

was not that of sight

but rather an eerie sound

with the deadliest thump

Oh, yes, it was
' A bump in the night'

Your intro really got a hold on me! Very cool beginning! Totally right for the season! I liked it! I really liked how you picked the phrase "a bump in the night" to write about instead of what most people write about around Holloween like "Dracula" or "The Wolf Man." You picked a phrase and made it a character! That I think is really cool!

Oh, this is so well done! You create a world filled with the beauty of the autumn night and into it flows the darkness, coming alive to our senses in every way. It was so wondrous to read!
