When A Vampire Called Miss White

When a vampire called Miss White
Visited me at dead of night
And stood by my bed
In her dress blood red
I wondered if she would bite …!

When a vampire called Miss White
Visited me at dead of night
I offered her rump steak
But she refused to partake
And flew into the starless night

As I Walk Through the Graveyard on Halloween

As I walk through the graveyard on Halloween
I shall think on how witches and ghouls
Are only by fools
Seen.

The learned well understand
That there is no ghostly hand
To their progress stop
As they pass the graveyard plot.
Yet I shall quicken my pace
Just in case …

That Time of Year Thou Mayst in Me Behold. Sonnet 73 by William Shakespeare

Yesterday evening, when I met up with my friend Brian, he reminded me of this beautiful Shakespearian sonnet:

“That time of year thou mayst in me behold
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
Bare ruined choirs, where late the sweet birds sang.
In me thou see’st the twilight of such day
As after sunset fadeth in the west;
Which by and by black night doth take away,
Death’s second self, that seals up all in rest.
In me thou see’st the glow...

More Halloween Humour

I know a young lady called Lin
Who is pretty but full of sin.
On the night of Halloween
I saw a touching scene,
‘Twas the devil romancing Lin!

There was a young lady called Lin
Who grew a giant pumpkin.
Whilst out one Halloween
I saw a thing obscene
Which made me run back in!

There was a young lady called Lin
Who was petite and slim.
On the night of Halloween
I found a thing obscene,
‘Twas Lucifer in my bin!

When The Wife of A Man Called Ted

When the wife of a man called Ted
Found a stiletto under their bed
She said, “I’m sure that this shoe
Belongs to my good friend Lou!”,
At which Ted turned and fled!
