Halloween Bewares


           
            

Halloween night is a night for fun.
It can be fun for ever-y-one.
Don’t worry ‘bout ghosts and goblins and more
(It’s probably just your friends from next door!)
So put on your costume, your sweater, a mask
And go trick or treating, what more could you ask?
Now here are the rules and the reasons—beware!
When crossing the street, watch for cars coming there.
When it’s nearly dark, they cannot see you
So cross at the corners, beware what you do!
Can you see from your mask, or is it too hard?
(You’ll know if you fall before leaving your yard!)
Wear face paint and make-up on your face instead.
It’s great to be painted up blue, black and red!
And where are you going? Do your parents know?
It’s better to close friends and neighbors to go.
Come home when you’re finished
And check all your treats.
And anything loose, torn or dirty—don’t eat!
And beware, oh beware, whatever you do,
If you eat too much candy, you’ll be aching—Boohoo!
So go out and have fun on Halloween night
Trick or Treat, and be sure to be nice and polite.
Thank the people who treat you—you’ll do that, won’t you?
It’ll make Halloween happy—for them and for YOU!
