The True Horror!
I just gave Hallowe’en away.
I gave it to the kids next door;
the ghosts, the lanterns, tinsel bats,
the candles, ice-trays and place mats.
My grim reaper curtain’s no longer mine,
my pumpkin, ghost and spider chain.
Getting too old to put it all up just to take it down again.
My knees complain about the strain!
Time to face the truth with horror.
That whiskered old witch in the mirror
is really me!
