This is definitely a good hallow poem. Can you see the insurance claim on the cars they wreck? It is more cute than scary and lets the imagination go wild. You got some pretty big names in and still got get to flow.

This is an excellent poem about different sorts of ghosts, quite dangerous to be around. I enjoyed this post and couldn't find anything to criticize.

I am really impressed with the original thinking in this poem. If I had a six star left, I would give it to you in a minute.

Prehistoric souls. Who'd a thunk it?

Cute! Too bad Halloween can't be celebrated as freely as it used to be, but still it's fun for the kids, marching house to house in all those different costumes.

Wow! That is a bit freaky to me. I, for one, am glad they are ghosts roaming around. You did write an original poem, one with a complete different context and your imagination is abounding. Take care, and I hope one of those flying ones don't pick you up and carry you away this Halloween. LOL Well done. Lois xoxo

Haha, yes being carried away by a pterdactyl would be different. THanks for a great review. Elaine

Hi, Mermaids, you're tight. This is different from most Halloween poems. Seems that you're an expert in prehistoric creatures or at least have done your 'homework' well. This is delightful though eerie to me:

the budding paleontologist
in me
rejoices when Halloween arrives
for these creatures come forth
and enter my world

This is very creative. I think I would change the 'mailman ' to something else as it detracts from the spooky feel of the rest of the poem. Maybe use something children dress up like, a ghost, a princess etc. Mailman just seems too ordinary for the rest of this poem~Debbie

Yes, the mailman is an ordinary character here. Thanks for reading. Elaine

Love this poem - it's imaginative and evocative. The words really paint a picture. I could imagine reading this to children and asking them to create their own pictures based on the poem. Well done.

This is one of the most imaginative poems I've read since joining this site. It so light and full of a child-like wonder for the world.
