 |    A poem a day keeps the cobwebs off my keyboard. |
| Everywhere you look superheroes and queens Are roaming the streets It’s Halloween! A few wear pointy hats, others with howls invoke, werewolves and witches or dress up as ghosts. But poor doggy Spot he got left at home. The kids got the treats, he was left alone. He barked when they knocked hoping to get his share, but mommy only shushed him she didn’t seem to care. He wanted to go with the kids door to door “I would blend in” he thought, “if a costume I wore”. So he slipped to the closet and climbed on the shelf, tore off a towel and threw it over himself. He grabbed the bucket with the evil grin, emitted a ghostly wail from deep within. No neighbor guessed that haunting growl came not from a child, but a dog in a towel.
