Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 649 (To Recognize?)

I did not recognize the llittle ghost that ran through the yard-

Even though I looked extra hard.

.

I did not recognize the wee witch-

That crossed quickly over my ditch.

.

I did not recognize the brazen skeleton-

That rushed through the yard and was on the run.

.

I did not recognize the many little pumpkins who

happened to pass by-

Some wanting candy, some wanting a bottle, in

full cry.

.

Yes, it was a strange Halloween night to go through-

Didn’t recognize anyone, but they are where all of

my candy went to.

.

I did not recognize the litte ghost that ran through the yard-

Even though I looked extra hard.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose (Otter Shadow Relations)

It was an otter moon filled night-
No reason to feel any fright.
Except for the fact that it was Halloween-
And strange things had been seen.
.
A shadow had appeared that they did not know-
Any closer they just simply would not go.
But they kept their distance and were afraid-
To find out what it was the plans were laid.
.
The plan began to set a trap-
To catch the shadow when it was in a a nap.
For they could not think about it being awake-
It was too scary for goodness sake.
.
They waited until the middle of the night-
At a time when all could be filled with fright.
But since they were going to solve their problem-
They could get by easy as a whim.
.
In the corner the shadow did snore-
They waited and it snored some more.
They then lit up the den and then they saw-
Something that filled them with awe.
.
It was their cousin who for a while hadn’t been around-
And had slinked around without making a sound.
So they just let the shadow go back to sleep-
All had much relaxed shut eye without a peep.

.

It was an otter moon filled night-
No reason to feel any fright.
Except for the fact that it was Halloween-
And strange things had been seen.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 659 (The Pumpkin Patch)

The idea came to hatch-

That we had to visit the pumpkin patch.

.

It was just a small drive-

And, then all of a sudden the scenery

came alive.

.

The vines were so green-

Amongst the orange pumpkins, that

were seen.

.

Big ones and small ones, and some

in between-

Some were huge, and of course, some

were lean.

.

To choose, was a hard thing to do-

As we continued to walk, as we continued

through.

.

And, then all of a sudden we saw the perfect

one-

We snapped it off the vine, we were finally

through.

.

Sad to leave, though, for it had been so much fun-

Back through the field, to pay, and it would all be

done.

.

We smiled as we drove away-

With the perfect pumpkin, for Halloween Day.

.

The idea came to hatch-

That we had to visit the pumpkin patch.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose #662 (The Candy Bowl Was Overflowing)

The candy bowl was overflowing-

As a matter of fact, it was glowing.

.

And then the doorbell rang, and it

began to get low-

For there were so many trick or treaters

on the go.

.

A handful here and a handful there-

Little hands, with bags were everywhere.

.

Dressed in costume from pumpkins to

the princess-

All the children in the neighborhood were

dressed in their Halloween best.

.

Before long the candy bowl was empty-

Not a piece left was there to be.

.

Had to hurry and fill it up once again-

For the doorbell was still ringing more now

than then.

.

The candy bowl was overflowing-

As a matter of fact it was glowing.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose (05) Working To Keep That Candy Bowl Full

 

The candy bowl was full when I heard the first knock-

It was still early, as I looked at the clock.

.

It was Halloween night and as the children came-

The contents of the candy bowl were never again the same.

.

I filled it up over and over again to keep it topped-

And, had to keep it up earnestly as the traffic never stopped.

.

They came by the droves and were all so cute-

The idea to run out of candy could never be in dispute.

.

The candy bowl was full when I heard the first knock-

It was still early, as I looked at the clock.
