ONE YOUNG SCARIE

ONE YOUNG SCARIE

One young scarie fell asleep
On his very first Halloween night
He tired while scaring children
Now he's out like a light

The others couldn't find him
Those scaries all went home
But little scarie didn't go
Now he was all alone

He didn't know the way to find
Oblivion's dark cave
That's where scaries must return
If they are to be saved

Just then he heard a horse's "neigh"
The rider was a sight
His head a Jack-O-Lantern
A specter of the night

"A scarie!" said the horseman
"You're out here far too late
If you do not reach the cave
You face a terrible fate!"

"My friend I'd like to help you
But this horse is not so hot
He doesn't care for Halloween
He won't run, walk, or trot."

"I'd gladly take you to the cave
I must return there too
If I can't get this horse to move
We'll both be in a stew."

Little Scarie thought, then said
"I can get this done!
Get on your horse and hold on tight
I will make him run."

Then Scarie did what scaries do
He screamed a Hellish scream
The horse reared back and squealed in fright
And ran at his full steam

And so they helped each other
They all got home that night
That scarie, horse, and horseman
Made a frightful Halloween sight!
