Fourth Entry in our Autumn/Halloween Poetry and Children’s Verse Contest

Here is our fourth entry (and we have four days to go). Today Marcia gets creative with her nod to gothic romance!

            Shiver and Ugh

I read some books about vampires
a girl fell in love with one
But I confess I felt some ire
When she said she would be one.
                (shiver)

I never saw a vampire tooth
I never want to see one
But I can tell you this right now
I’d rather see than— feeeeel one.
                  (ugh)

And now…

A note from our sponsors:

Come all you ghouls

The good and the creepy

and write me a line

that’s just a bit freaky

A Jack-O who hums

A raven in flight

Or children who knock

on your door

for a fright

Our contest will end

Four moons from today

And all of this fun

will just fade

away

by Robyn C.
