Griesly Manor (2012 Bardic)

By: Nixxe Posted on: October 10, 2012

Cold breeze straight to bone

ghosts and pumpkins appear

spiders drop from trees

candy corn litter the highway

masked ones jump out, give fright

Come upon a looming house

rap rap rap at the door

a slow creak invites

with wide eyes, jaw slack

handle rush to frame

Something touched my leg

a lock of hair away

what was that

wonder of the dark,

wander into the dust

Meander through the mansion

touching this and that

thinking out loud

strange voices answer back

that's it, enough!

Running out to the road

giggling children in groups

they beg for treats

better run if none

or they leave a treat instead
