HALLOWEEN
BY FIONA CUMMINGS 
 You think I’m the
little old lady from down the street?
Well on Halloween I’m a frail old woman you don’t want to
meet
Smells from my kitchen
A magic potion
 Boiled bones 
My oven groans 
What’s inside?
Let’s say people cried 
Why not come to mine?
Don’t slip on the slime
If you do
Expect the worst to happen to you
Cat’s tails 
And dogs poo 
Unshelled garden snails 
And soup from my loo
A glass of punch 
For a grizzly lunch 
Where is my hat 
And my broom   
My cape and special bag
I’m coming to see you soon 
Down your garden path
 On your door a rat a
tat tat 
Open with care
My treats I will share
Dip in if you dare?
