Poems

Besides quotes, poems make great additions to greeting cards. Here are some Halloween poems that might work well for a longer style message.

Wishing you lots of Halloween fun, 
And that you eat all the candy you can.  
If you get scared try not to run, 
Because the monster is just a man. 
-Blake Flannery

Shadows of a thousand years rise again unseen,
Voices whisper in the trees, "Tonight is Halloween!"
-Dexter Kozen

From ghoulies and ghosties
And long-leggedy beasties
And things that go bump in the night,
Good Lord, deliver us!
-Scottish Saying

Dress up and play the part.  
Hold out your bag to be stuffed.  
Just don’t do it at Wal-Mart, 
Or you might end up handcuffed. 
-Blake Flannery

When witches go riding,
and black cats are seen,
the moon laughs and whispers,
‘tis near Halloween.
-Unknown

Silent phantoms of the night
In their robes of ghostly white 
They are always to be seen
On the night of Halloween
-Unknown
