synesthesia poem for Halloween


Halloween
By Lisa Noe

Orange pumpkins fat and sweet,
Black cats find it a real treat.
All children dress to give you a scream and a scare,
All adults just you hide and beware.

Halloween comes but once a year,
To make all Christians live in trembling fear.
Be good or the Boogy man will visit you.
And chop you up, eat you and make a soup.

Jack o lanterns with great big toothy grins,
Will come to life and steal your gin.
They’ll drink it until they're good and slobbering drunk,
Then they’ll kill you and stuff you in a big giant trunk.
