Challenge
We are approaching Halloween, and not much longer after that will be Thanksgiving, followed by just about everyone’s favorite holiday—Christmas. Thus this challenge is to incorporate all three holidays into a three stanza poem followed by a single line ending. This can be dark, eerie, pleasant, daunting. Possibilities with this can be endless.
Because Prose still has some difficulties determining a winner via most likes, and though this falls under Monarchy, I will choose the winner based on the total amount of likes. The only difference this time is this: If you do not tag me in the comment box, not in your piece—it will not matter how many likes you have, it will not be chosen, so be sure to tag me as @Danceinsilence. I will start this off so you get an idea or ideas from which to decide how you wish to go with this.

Happy Halloday

When the ghost comes out to play

On this dark but festive day

They do not say BOO!!!...

The children's laughter renders in the air

You will think that they just won a great prize from a fair

Without any cares or fears of the danger lurking near

When these great beast that has no teeth

Come gnashing their beaks

Looking to pay back vengeance for their deceased

Will the children do?

They will be easy to chew

Their flesh will tear like rotten cloth

And their organs and bones will make a delicious broth

Then the great beast ancestors will scream no more

Because vengeance was as sweet as them when they were stuffed, baked , sliced, and honey glazed then slipped through the oven door

And when their spirits ascends into the sky

They will meet old jolly HoHo passing by

Through the chimney and out the fireplace

There will be no milk and cookies for old jolly to taste

When old jolly is hungry

A blood thirsty Krampus is set free

So forget naughty or nice

Anyone will suffice

So Happy Halloday!

Keep your children safe if can

Because these great beast have a plan....
