Halloween Date Dialog

Robert:
  Watch out for a severed hand! 
  A ghostly apparition, too.
  I know it’s our first date, my dear,
  but I am in the mood for boo.

Eliana:
  Oh Robert, how you think of me,
  and I’m so happy I could scream.
  A party at Elvira’s house seems
  perfect on this Halloween.

Robert:
  Walk with me, Eliana now
  as we approach the spooky door.
  Your crooked nose, a witches hat
  are things most folks will sure adore.

Eliana:
  Oh Robert, we are getting close,
  and I can hear the revelry.
  I’m pleased about your confidence
  that they will take a shine to me.

Robert:
  Well, here we are, and so I’ll knock—
  suspense is dripping in the air!
  It’s like bobbing for apples when
  that sticky water coats your hair.

Eliana:
  The door is opening, a grisly
  ghoul exhales in eerie screech.
  Perhaps a bowl of candy corn
  is in the room within my reach.

Robert:
  Somehow the scare incites me too,
  yet look around at all the fun.
  We do not need more sugar for
  the night is sweet and we are one.

Eliana:
  Oh Robert I agree with you,
  on this fright night I am too rash.
  Let us enjoy the party now
  and boogie to the Monster Mash.

Robert:
  I am enjoying this so much,
  I love to hear the whoops and wails.
  Compared to this event right now,
  a pumpkin carving contest pales!
