The Pumpkin Prayer by Michael C Oakes
We light this candle within the pumpkin head, This lantern is a guide for the souls of the dead, Enter all good spirits we welcome thee, From Jack’s stare evil spirits must flee. The Pumpkin Of Halloween
by Charles E S Fairey
Oh Jack O’ Lantern You light our home, Protecting us from the evil spirits, Devils, demons and ancient crone. Grown to such a magnificent size Our macabre grotesque pumpkin, Carved face with glowing scowl Illuminating light from deep within. What creatures of the night Do your piercing eyes scare, Each year we create thee And your flesh we eat and share. Your eyes flicker in the flame, Shadows dancing about the room, Like ghosts the walls come alive, Your monstrous head lighting the gloom. What creatures of the night, Have your piercing eyes seen, Here each year On ghostly Halloween. |
