Bewitching Hour

I used to be bewitching myself
needed no help from an imp/elf.
That was long past, here is now
the power is gone, no matter how
I tried with costumes or masks
no one pays attention to oldies
Halloween for trick or treat,
little scary fun but lot to eat
The bewitching hour after school,
ringing doorbell, keeps me cool
Just treat the goblins and fairies,
don’t let them do any more tricks.
