Spooky growling



Listen to the wind howl.
What is it trying to say?
Does it scare you somehow,
Or does it want to play?

If in an angry gust
The lights happened to go out.
Scream, scream if you must
But don’t you cry and pout.

Listen to the wind howl,
What an awful sound.
Why does it have to be so loud?
Oh, wait! It’s just my stomach growl.

Trick or treat,
I need some candy to eat.

Bad timing




Have you ever heard a rooster crow?
Not at the sight of the rising sun,
more or less around midnight
when it should be sleeping,
when I should be sleeping.
Have you ever heard a rooster crow?

I have!

Have you ever tasted rooster soup?
