A Bad Halloween Poem by Old Kitty
It’s time to stir the witch’s brew
And bake a cake with a spider or two.
It’s time to dress up as a ghoul or a monster
And turn the cat into a bright orange lobster!
It’s time to go out and trawl the streets
Trick or treating for some gooey sweets!
It’s time to turn off the lights and stay unseen
It’s time to scream out “Happy Halloween!”
Charlie says: I search for treats only.

Bloggie friends!
Do you like magic? Here is lovely Elizabeth Mueller’s book Darkspell launched today!
Winter Sky believes she is everything ordinary . . .until she is kissed by Alex Stormhold. As seer of Stormhold Coven, Alex is sworn to be Winter’s protector against the darkness that hunts her. Violently thrust into a magical realm she always thought impossible, she stumbles upon a disturbing secret of her own. Will love prove thicker than magic?

Love the Halloween poem! It is one of my favorite holidays!
You scared me with that poem :)
Happy Halloween.
Thanks for voting for Phil Campbell. We're headed into the last week and we're closing.
A very creepy, spooky poem.
Actually, you basically described a normal situation in this lil' ol' English town. Gosh, now you've got me typing in American, y'all :)
Take care and Penny the Jack Russell dog and modest internet spooky star, says 'Arf! Arf! and.........BOO!

Hi Kitty,

Love the poem. And great books to spotlight. Thanks.
Hope you and Charlie both get a few treats today.
Enjoy your Romp through All Hallows Eve.....wishing you and Charlie a very happy Samhain!!!!!
Loved the poem. And congrats to all our successful fellow bloggers. I know I could dress up as a published writer for this Samhain!!!
Bet no-one would recognise me.
Happy Halloween to you and Charlie. At least you didn't try to dress him up--I'm sure he appreciates that.
And I very much enjoyed your poem, btw.
Have a great day!
Very good! Happy Halloweening!
Charlie please tell us Jenn doesn't make you go out and hunt for your treats - look out for a treat fairy hiding in a plant pot cos we're sure she will give you a bag full - all for yourself.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx

Cool Halloween poem! Much better than the silly one I wrote! Happy Halloween to you and Charlie!
I love your poem! When do we get to see the picture of Charlie as a bright orange lobster???
I loved your Halloween poem.
HI, I am Fern and a new friend. I am an animal lover big time. I love all animals even the wild ones!! I am with out a dog right now b/c I lost my long time friend Bambi at all most 14 years old and she wasn't a small dog!! I adopted a little mutt in Aug. but she had to go back to the rescue group b/c she bite me everyday and she dug out everyday and it was safer for both of us for her to go back, it broke my heart!!
Do come and meet me.
xx, Fern & Happy (Cat)
Ooh...I just love your Halloween poem!
Hope you're having a lovely week. Did Charlie get a lot of treats?
Run, Charlie, Run!!! Don't get turned into an orange lobster! ;)
Great poem! And great news on two great blogger's books.
Bad? Bloody good, I'd have said! Well done.
im waiting for a texas book called "All Hat and No Saddle" lol
Congratulations Elizabeth!
I have read worse poetry
So many wonderful new books out! Halloween was a blast and we're now swimming in candy. I'm with Charlie... I only look for treats. Hey can I borrow him so I can get my cat fix?? Just send him over in the post... maybe include some tea and shortbread. ;)
No tricks for Charlie. He's all business when it comes to treats.
Rumpy pumpy. Love that expression. Congrats to Elizabeth, Theresa, and the rumpy pumpy man! :)
Hope you and Charlie had a great Hallowe'en.
Fab poem! I enjoyed it very much. Hope you had a happy Halloween! Don't you just love this time of year?
I loved your poem!
I hope you had a Happy Halloween!
xxoo

Love that poem! And I hope Charlie found some treats. Catnip, maybe?
A cake with spiders baked in, ewwww! But I'd like to see the kitty dressed up as a lobster! Wondering if Halloween is as big in UK as it is here in the US.
I hope Charlie found some treats.
Scary Poem. I'm retiring all spooky things for another year. I may join Charlie and hunt for treats. :)
Perfect poem for Halloween! Hmmm, I bet Charlie came up with that cake recipe ;) LOL!
Hope Charlie was the only who tried that cake.
Bloggers are publishing so many good books lately! These all look wonderful!!
And Jen and I LOVE your Halloween poem. Hope you had a good Halloween Eve. My Halloween Queen youngest daughter did!! Jen and I went up north the Sunday before the big night and saw her house that she decorates inside and out every year. She outdid herself this time!! I posted her grim reaper again. Every blogger who stopped by my blog a year ago thought it was THE BEST.
Hope you're having a BEST week. How is the weather where you are?

Thanks for the book love! You rock.
Love your poem! Great review too. :D I hope the little ones didn't eat you and Charlie out of house and home...
Hope you had a happy Halloween!
Awesome poem!!
And great reading choices!
Your poem was/is F.U.N!!!
Oh Dog! That is so cool! I hope you had a fantastic Halloween! I did. Now, how about a poem for Santa? It's almost time ya know!
Great poem! Love the picture of you charlie! Happy November!
That's not bad poetry at all. I enjoyed it. :)
Yay for book releases.
Hi Charlie and bean! I think that is a great poem. Much better than I could do for sure. Halloween is our favorite holiday. I doesn't come with the baggage (aka family obligations) that other ones do. Of course, I still have to wear a bizarre costume but oh well.
Thanks for coming to my party! I hope you're having a great time!
I know nothing about poetry, but this sounded like a fun one to me. I've seen good things about the fist two books. The third one is new to me.
Terrific poem! And Charlie wants his treats to be milk or tuna based...
Just stopping by to say see how you're doing. Thanks for your nice comment on Deniz's blog.
Thank you for sharing your fun poem! And for the book recommendations.
Hope you had a festive Halloween!
Sweet and delicious Halloween poem!
