'Twas the week of Halloween
And all through the school
All you heard was screaming
Even though it wasn't "cool."
The pumpkins were carved
Into goofy little heads
Werewolves, vampires
And lots of the undeads.
The kids learned nothing
Though the teachers were trying.
And let's face it: already
The janitors were crying.
Lost wigs, broken glass,
Thrown eggs, wet TP
The janitor's closet
Was the place to be!
Except that's where the ghosts hid,
Ghosts of former bad students
Who were merely punished
For mischievousness and impudence!
The parents they moaned
When they saw the assignment planner.
Healthy snacks, NO NUTS!
Hulk smash! Just like Bruce Banner!
"There's no groceries in this house!
And Publix isn't open this late."
"Thought I told you Monday,
Why are you so irate?"
Treats procured,
Danger of uncoolness averted
Costume crafted
Hot mess diverted.
Pixi stixs inhaled
Sugar surged through their veins
Chocolate coursed, but
Tomorrow was nowhere near their brains.
Happy Halloween to all and to all a good fright
On this not quite yet Halloween night!
Good luck teaching November 1st! We're off and I'm off to EPCOT.
