⠁Halloween is SAFE please share and repost this Everywhere !🎃👻🍬🧡
Pass the pumpkin, the chocolate, the fun,
The lies of danger  should be over and done.
One family  did it to their  own and  just once
sure  they faltered, history shows,
But tonight the laughter in every street grows.

One girl, once
a story twisted till now, her family the foe, no one else involved anyhow
Caught in a lie that everyone seemed to know.
Not strangers , not once not ever.
Just one poor  family that wasn't that clever.
No one hiding  in shadows, not monsters in the dark,
But blood-bound kin,
their hands left this mark.

Hospitals have known, urgent care has seen,
The truth of Halloween is far from mean.
Safe, joyous, mischievous, costumes that gleam,
The streets belong to witches, to pirates, to dreams
Fun and silliness careless  youth and recorded  screams.

An urban legend  got demonized an blown out of proportion
safety and the love for our kids  twisted through  the  telephone game lens  and added distortion .

Its just not true !
I happily did all the research for  you.
No records of admittance
no insurance claims
no weirdos  doing bad stuff anyone can actually name
or  blame.

There never were ANY bad  treats

just A bad horror story repeated on every neighborhood street.

All hospitals keep an accurate ledger, even backwoods halls,
Even Appalachian urgent care, has no  documented calls.
So dress up,  go out ,  hit up the streets and the malls
Put the fear back in the costumes where it belongs
let em bob  for  apples and sing silly songs.

Before the jack-o’-lanterns glowed in autumn night,
Before ghosts and goblins gave the town such  a fright,
Records stood silent, precise and unbending,
No claims, no apple admittance
no illness or bad will not then,  not now,  not ever
no children’s lives were ending.
Just more 80's satanic panic
the buzz **** un ending
its a hollow lie and not worth defending.

So stop the fear-mongering, the horror tales  grown stale,
Let kids run laughing,
let candy prevail.
There never have been any  poisoned chocolates
no apples that killed,
Just friends in the night, chasing thrills
and the  thrilled.
Buckets full of love and fun to be
filled and then spilled.
Hoarded or traded
at school  so  proudly coveted or paraded.
Trick or treat indeed
its the good time we all enjoy and need.

This is the  truth easily verifiable
so let em have fun
and it IS  
FUN
undeniable.
  Happy Halloween   go out and  enjoy  it .
Spread the truth, not fear and unfounded lies
give love and receive love
and enjoy a surprise .
HAPPY HALLOWEEN  !!

The tip of your tongue

is beautiful, red and round --


Delicious candy.

We’ll hitchhike to mars
on a rocket not a car,
so say your au revoirs.

We’ll steer towards Polaris, the north star
right through the center of the milky-way-bar.
See, the universe is dark and chocolatey.

Stars that glitter like multi-faceted gems,
are just shiny, yellow, peanut M&Ms,
take a handful, if you’d like, they’re free.

We’ll dodge the silhouetted moon,
which is made of enough coconut macaroon,
to make a French confectioner swoon.

As we go streaking, like a comet’s tail,
drag a finger through Saturn’s rings as well,
those are made of marshmallow.

We’ll  pass nebulae made of cotton-kandi,
and here’s a fact Einstein would have found handy,
the speed of light doesn’t apply to candy.

Ramble on by Toni Jevicky

All that glitters is not gold
But beyond the waking world
Wonderland calls to me
I find myself entranced
by these glimmers of warmth in my mind.
Before the bitterness of reality took over
These memories of ghosts long past
are sweetened with vulnerability
I savor them again and again
Unable or perhaps unwilling
To separate myself from their thrall

We're two different people,
But in similar ways.

We both like chewing gum,
A pack in our pocket at all times.
But mine's watermelon,
Yours is nicotine.

Laughter sticks to my teeth,
Like taffy.
You are a carnival
Of affections;
And
I have not enjoyed sunshine in so long.

I have ten tiny candy hearts
Each one on one
Balanced in the air
Crocodiles teeth rot
They cry and sob in tears
They make the river salty
Complaining of no more candy
I watch and shake my head
The deals that must be made
Require no more candy
As i climb down off the ledge
