It's Not Too Late for Your Halloween Niceandshinythings

Day After Halloween

by Shel Silverstein



Skeletons, spirits and haunts,
Skeletons, spirits and haunts.
It's a Halloween sale:
A nickel a pail
For skeletons, spirits and haunts.




Skeletons, spirits and haunts,
More than most anyone wants.
Will you pay for a shock,
'Cause we're quite overstocked
On skeletons, spirits and haunts.



It's never too late



For Halloween blings



So stop by my shop



For some Halloween things.

The Wendigo

by Ogden Nash (with a bracelet by me)

The Wendigo,
The Wendigo!
Its eyes are ice and indigo!




Its blood is rank and yellowish!
Its voice is hoarse and bellowish!
Its tentacles are slithery,
And scummy,
Slimy,
Leathery!




Its lips are hungry blubbery,
And smacky,
Sucky,
Rubbery!




The Wendigo,
The Wendigo!
I saw it just a friend ago!




Last night it lurked in Canada;
Tonight, on your veranada!




As you are lolling hammockwise
It contemplates you stomachwise.




You loll,
It contemplates,
It lollops.
The rest is merely gulps and gollops.

You very own wendigo... in orange and indigo.
