Autumn Leaf Of The Day #40/October 31st Done The Right Way

 
 
"Haunt an old house.
Ask for a treat.
Laugh like a witch.
Lick something sweet.
Offer a trick.
Wander a maze.
Echo a boo.
Exclaim the phrase—
Normal's unnatural on Halloween!” 

~Richelle E. Goodrich

 This isn't really a Halloween post, but it is Halloween and so I just had to pay tribute in some way. I love this poem. It's cleaver. It's also a nice departure from the real world stuff. Donald Trump feels like Michael Myers sometimes. He gets people killed, and terrifies the rest of us. But for this day, I choose to have a happy day, as it is meant to be enjoyed. So, I will enjoy the leaves, enjoy the candy, enjoy the costumes, enjoy the horror movies and take a deep cleansing breath.
 
 Please enjoy me in letting go for one day, and renew!
 

And by the way, remember these wise words...
 
 "You know it's Halloween,
 I guess everyone's entitled to one good scare." 
 
Police Chief, Brackett
