Trick or treat. Candy fills the bowl isn’t this a treat.

Laid out for all the children who wouldn't miss a treat.

Gotta love Halloween night. The dress up to be seen night.

Deny me no sugar this is the candy fiend’s night.

All the children line up because they want a taste.

The sugar rush is a must. It’s puts a smile on a face.

Boy do we miss it. The way the adults looked when we showed up.

Pumpkin years. Made me never ever wanna grow up.

One snickers, Reese’s pieces, bag of skittles more.

When the kids come trick or treating open up your door.
