Happy Halloween!
Halloween Tree
Hear that ghostly, woeful wail?
I think that tree is howling.
Oaks don’t usually make a face,
but that bark is clearly scowling.
See those branches bend and reach
like the arms of a hungry hag?
I think those bony fingers want to
grab my goodie bag!
On one of my recent walks around the block I noticed a few trees making faces at me. I think they might have been getting ready for the holiday. Have a spooky, spectacular day!

We have a few scowlers in these parts too! I’ll be sure to watch my goodie bag. 🙂 Happy Halloween, Liz.
You too, Michelle! Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
So, I’m not the only one finding faces in odd places. Thanks for the poem, Liz. Have a happy Hallowe’en.
Gosh no! I see them everywhere!
Fabulous!
Thank you!
Yikes! Not only do kids have to safeguard their goodies from their parents (ahem…) but they need to watch out for the local flora. In our corner of the world, the flora is a bit pokey. Happy Halloween, Liz, to you and yours. =)
