'Twas Two Days Before Halloween

'Twas two days before Halloween, and all through the house
Not a creature was carving, not even a mouse.

The treat bags were hung by the chimney with care
In hopes that candy soon would be in there.

When what to my wondering eyes should appear
But a knife set, and my children so dear.

They said not a word but went straight to gutting
Took all the stuff out and then began cutting.

They sprang to their feet, put a candle inside.
And away they all ran, quickly to hide.

But I heard them exclaim as the candle shone bright,
"Happy Halloween to all, and to all a good night!"
