Halloween

Kids, all dressed up
like witches, goblins
and other scary characters
rush from house to house.
Dads and moms, bundled up
wait on the sidewalk
while their children
run up to my door.
And I play my part too—
all dressed up like Grandpa—
not very scary
hand out candy.
My little grandson
came by all dressed up as a Robo Trooper
whatever that is.

—Len Tews, Oshkosh
