Dear Heather,
Here's my response to your "Write Me a Letter" Challenge, in which you state among other stuff, that all 26 letters of the alphabet must be used.
How friggin' convenient!
I've been wanting to re-publish my Halloween poem from last year, and you gave me the perfect outlet. Yes, I've know you've read it. Yes, I'm know I'm cheating so I shouldn't be eligible for a prize, but who cares. Show me the money!!!
Honestly, I'd be happy to get some new eyes on my poem. I'm sure I'll enter another, more serious (yeah right) piece for your challenge. Meanwhile, here's my poem:
Night of Screams, A Spooky Abecedarian
Autumn winds send chills to the core
Black cats startling those who fear
Cadavers rise and walk the floor
Death hangs ghostly in the air
*
Eerie scenes of thickening fog
Frightful screams from all around
Grisly visions of bodies flogged
Haunting dreams with horror's sound
*
Impish goblins roam aimless in shadows
Jack-o-lanterns carry dimly light
Kisses of evil stalk fear in darkness
Lust filled monsters crave bloody smite
*
Masqueraded attire can’t hide the evil
Nightmare of terror that upon us begins
October full moon casts spells from medieval
Phantoms and witches chanting our sins
*
Queen of dark terror shows her visage
Reigning over this frightful night
Serpents slink from dead, blackened eyes
Tingling sensations from ghoulish sight
*
Unearthly creatures rise from their graves
Visions of horror are at once released
Wicked demons join in the fray
Xylophones play while spectres feast
*
Yowling wakes them from their dreams
Zombies stroll on the night of screams
--------
Thanks Nerd.
Love,
Nitty

Abece...what. Did you guys make up a word. Googling..waitaminute! ABECEDARIAN - arranged alphabetically. Ok, new one for me. Thanks Cathy. Your poem was simply abe.....darian.
lol! love this! definitely cheating and we had similar ideas as mine will probably feature an abecdarian I'm working on that's unrelated but I shall shoehorn in clunkily! well done on the fine letter and excellent poem!
Well played, Cathy.
Great Abecedarian for this season and it does fit Heather's challenge! You win! I missed it in the first round too.😂😂
You sneaky little evil genius! Abecedarian was such a brilliant idea to fit the 26 alphabets criteria! I was so shocked at the speed you wrote a piece for a challenge! Cheater! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Nevertheless, I still love your poem!
Great idea, well executed
Is this cheating, or utter briliance??? I have not yet decided. But I do like it
Brilliant work Cathy!
I am glad Heather gave you the chance to share this spooky wonderful poem since I missed it the first round.
