The end of October brings with it
great excitement and anticipation
as people don their carefully crafted outfits
and join others in celebration.
Halloween symbolizes many things
whether honoring saints or acknowledging the harvest.
Around the world people are it commemorating,
including some of the oldest and the youngest.
Activities include apple bobbing, carving pumpkins,
watching horror movies and sitting around bonfires,
typically with with friends or kin,
although hopefully without causing the neighbour's ire.
There are usually a variety of costumes to be seen,
from vampires to penguins and celebrities
and even pirates, superheroes and queens
throughout each city
From trick-or-treating one can receive plenty of sweets
by knocking on each door that one passes.
Having fun in the process is also a treat
especially when one participates alongside the masses.
