The Crow's Warning of What Lies Ahead

Reason for the following poem:
Each year, some of my neighbors get a head start on Halloween decorations.
Most, are just simple things, such as putting a sign out that says "Happy Halloween."
But I've noticed one of my neighbor's decorations were more than that and also really good.
So I decided to write a poem about it. (By the way, ignore the "Field Trip Entry." I put it there to give it a more...adventurous...feeling. And also, the title comes from the irony that a crow flew overhead while I was writing this.)



Field Trip Entry: House 3275

THE CROW'S WARNING OF WHAT LIES AHEAD:

A ghost haunting the ones around.

Many Jack-o-lanterns' toothy grins surround.

A witch casting a spell on not one, but all.

No invitations does the scarecrow call.

A stone that shows who's already dead.

Skulls that fill a path with dread.

A house ready for screams and scares.

Ready for anyone who even dares-

To enter a land who cares to meet

those that wish to trick or treat.
