: No Room for Halloween in Spring by Debi Pick Marquette
Halloween In Spring contest entry

 

We always loved our Halloween in Autumn every year

I sewed all of our costumes, and I did it with much cheer

It was a lot of work and time, but tried to make it fun

A family outing we enjoyed, for each and every one

 

 I do not go for zombies or the night of living dead

I'd rather talk of Jesus, coming back to life instead

Some may get their thrills to conjure spirits that they host 

The real one lives inside of you, He's called the Holy Ghost

 

How could it be more awesome, than a spirit from within

I have no room for gory, all the evil and the sin

Some creatures you admire, are a part of satan's snare

It all becomes too real, it's Halloween with too much scare

 

Here's why I don't think Halloween should have an extra fling

‘Cause Santa might just want to throw his hat back in the ring

The bunny has already done the part he does in Spring

What next ~ another turkey who will want to do his thing

Or

Give Jesus back His Holidays and show Him he’s "our King"

Author Notes
I really don't have a problem with the fun contest theme of Halloween in Spring. I realize it is all in fun. But as my last line is referring to, Jesus still hasn't a holiday of His own! He has to share His with the Easter Bunny and Santa. And even Santa has Christmas in July too. Just something to think about, as a society we do tend to give into the fun aspects of the holidays, and need to spend more time in honoring why we celebrate them.
So as far as a Halloween in Spring, please just not too close to Easter! Lol..
