Now, the lyrics of
THIS song were reconstructed by another
dear friend of mine, MHooch, who brings with her the brightness of the sun to any conversation she joins...'The 12 days of Halloween' became an instant classic in our house after we sang it the first time--(you guys are about to see what I mean....
)
Sing along, now!!....
On the 1st day of Halloween, my true love gave to me...
An owl sitting in a dead tree.
On the 2nd day of Halloween, my true love gave to me...
Two purple bats,
And an owl sitting in a dead tree.
On the 3rd day of Halloween, my true love gave to me...
Three candy corns,
Two purple bats,
And an owl sitting in a dead tree.
On the 4th day of Halloween, my true love gave to me...
Four ghastly ghosts,
Three candy corns,
Two purple bats,
And an owl sitting in a dead tree.
On the 5th day of Halloween, my true love gave to me...
***FIVE CREEPY CLOWNS****
Four ghastly ghosts,
Three candy corns,
Two purple bats,
And an owl sitting in a dead tree.
On the 6th day of Halloween, my true love gave to me...
Six banshees shrieking,
***FIVE CREEPY CLOWNS****
Four ghastly ghosts,
Three candy corns,
Two purple bats,
And an owl sitting in a dead tree.
On the 7th day of Halloween, my true love gave to me...
Seven witches cackling,
Six banshees shrieking,
***FIVE CREEPY CLOWNS****
Four ghastly ghosts,
Three candy corns,
Two purple bats,
And an owl sitting in a dead tree.
On the 8th day of Halloween, my true love gave to me...
Eight mummys moaning,
Seven witches cackling,
Six banshees shrieking,
***FIVE CREEPY CLOWNS****
Four ghastly ghosts,
Three candy corns,
Two purple bats,
And an owl sitting in a dead tree.
On the 9th day of Halloween, my true love gave to me...
Nine Zombies shuffling,
Eight mummys moaning,
Seven witches cackling,
Six banshees shrieking,
***FIVE CREEPY CLOWNS****
Four ghastly ghosts,
Three candy corns,
Two purple bats,
And an owl sitting in a dead tree.
On the 10th day of Halloween, my true love gave to me...
Ten black cats hissing,
Nine Zombies shuffling,
Eight mummys moaning,
Seven witches cackling,
Six banshees shrieking,
***FIVE CREEPY CLOWNS****
Four ghastly ghosts,
Three candy corns,
Two purple bats,
And an owl sitting in a dead tree.
On the 11th day of Halloween, my true love gave to me...
Eleven pumpkins grinning,
Ten black cats hissing,
Nine Zombies shuffling,
Eight mummys moaning,
Seven witches cackling,
Six banshees shrieking,
***FIVE CREEPY CLOWNS****
Four ghastly ghosts,
Three candy corns,
Two purple bats,
And an owl sitting in a dead tree.
On the 12th day of Halloween, my true love gave to me...
Twelve demons dancing,
Eleven pumpkins grinning,
Ten black cats hissing,
Nine Zombies shuffling,
Eight mummys moaning,
Seven witches cackling,
Six banshees shrieking,
***FIVE CREEPY CLOWNS****
Four ghastly ghosts,
Three candy corns,
Two purple bats,
***BIG FINISH NOW!!!!***
And an owl sitting in a dead tree.

AND, she also wrote this poem...
In the darkness,
see it crouching.
In the closet,
see it slouching.
Can it see me
here in my bed,
with the covers
over my head?
Cannot sleep or
it will get me,
I can't move, and
so I can't flee.
If I watch it
I'll be all right,
Boy it's gonna
be a long night!
(Who
hasn't found themselves in that predicament??)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also, this one:
Can you hear it?
What's that sound?
Little feet patter
On the ground.
Can you hear it?
Sounds so sweet!
Little voices call:
Trick or Treat!!!
SWEET!!
MamaHooch,
