Remember remember the 1st of November

Treason should ever be forgot.

Mrs White had a fright,
In the middle of the night.
She saw a ghost eating toast,
Half way up a lamp post.
***
Put on your costume,
Tie your mask on tight,
Grab your bags for trick-or-treating
Cause it’s Halloween’s night!

The sky is black.
The ghosts are white.
Do you know tonight's the night,
When witches fly above the street,
And boys and girls shout
«Trick or Treat»?
