Kids Corner : Halloween Sweetness

by Patricia Britt


This is a night of ghosts, goblins, grimlins, and things that go bump in the night.



This is a week of keeping children's tender hearts safe while they trick, or treat at downtown business sponsored events, and the brisk streets with crunchy orange, tan, and brown autumn leaves.



Thirty years ago kids could trick or treat on Halloween by themselves without parents watchful eyes bringing home pillow cases full of sweet goodies like tootsie rolls, and sweet tarts. Even then it was the dawn of twisted malicious minds putting razor blades, and pins in candy for innocents to consume.



Now with the watchful eyes of police, and parents, kids can still have fun playing dress up as angels, fairies, warlocks, and superheroes one spooky week each year.

Poem 

A Child's Light

Children are the light of the world.
Kids make you smile,
And act so wild.
From ga ga goo goo,
To I love you.

Monopoly,
Go Fish,
Operation,
And Play Doe,
Baseballs,
Basketballs, 
Soccer, 
Checkers,
Tennis,
Kites,
Merry go rounds,
Swings & Things.

Roller Skating,
Dancing,
Music, 
Cards,
Boomerangs, 
Bikes, 
Puppies, 
Merry Go Rounds,
And Frizbees in the park.

Sing along songs,
Campfires,
Beaches,
Hula Hoops,
And Summer fun,
Are a kids arena,
In a kids dream,
To be sure,
To keep you forever young.

Reading until the sun goes down.
A child's light makes you feel shiny,
And new through,
And through.
