Trick or Treating is very near
The time has almost come
That game of candy retrieval…
There’s still so much to be done!
Some Dentists smile
While others are cringing
Wallets are straining…
as bellies are binging!
Parents prepare for a night to remember
yet, others plan on turning it into a bender
Children in costumes, whether bought or hand-made…
Candy hunting parties to form, retrieval plans to be laid!
Words of warning
to all those first timers
Too much sugar left out…
Results in tummy aches and whiners!

It was an iffy ending, but at least I didn’t fully lose my train of thought on this one.
I’m no quitter!
Good one, Wi! I was tracking the whole way. No problems following right along!

Nice poem. Some of us curmudgeons who don’t have young children are content to leave the light off. To be fair to myself, no one trick-or-treats on our street.
