The shops are awash with spooky gear,
It must be nearing that time of the year.
When folks living in the northern hemisphere
Stock up on sweet treats but not reindeer!
Halloween is closing in fast,
That ancient Celtic festival from the past.
Samhain for the purist at heart,
Celebrating a healthy harvest is just the start.
Creating Jack O’Lanterns and dressing in disguise,
This keeps the old traditions very much alive.
But remember, when it is all said and done,
Halloween is a thin veil where you could become undone!
