HALLOWEEN

As darkness settled in, the nightly breeze rocked the tree branches allowing the street lights to shine down their beams in a dancing pattern on the street and lawns.  The sounds of rustling leaves break the silence of the evening.

The sliver of a moon rose among the clouds of the night sky which moved so gently exposing the sparkling stars that would disappear again as if playing a game of hide and seek.

The sounds of a hoot owl mingled with the barking of dogs in the distance and the screech of fighting cats could be heard above the din.  The shadows mingled throughout leaving to the imagination as to what lay ahead or behind.

And on this night of the year, the tales of horror run rampant as ghosts and goblins move about.  Witches with their boiling cauldrons surrounded by the black cats with their gleaming green eyes piercing the darkness.  The shadows produced ghostly apparitions that floated over and around as if searching for a soul to overtake.

The apparitions and goblins along with the screeching cats and dogs disappeared into the night as voices began to fill the air with laughter and children in costume with faces hidden behind masks run from house to house calling out, TRICK OR TREAT!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN
