Lost On The Path At Halloween : Narrative Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


 

 

It was Halloween night and he walked up the path .

On the way to the front door he heard a strange laugh.

The house was in darkness but he thought he would  try ,

To get a response instead of just walking by .  

He rang the door bell and thought of what he would say .

Halloween is a time for trick or treat and play .

He rang the door bell again but still no one came .

So he took a coin and knocked on the window pane .


A dog howled somewhere and the wind began to blow   .


Then he saw her , the scary face at the window .
She looked at him and he felt his blood turn to ice .
He knew he had to run and he didn't think twice .

The tree branches pulled at his coat all down the path  ,

and the face at the window just started to laugh .

Happy Halloween she screamed and the wind blew cold  .


No one ever saw him again,  

so I was told .
