Halloween Grinch
No more ghouls, goblins
To knock at the door.
No more teens
To put out a hand
Or two, for candy
Stolen from small creatures
Who watch in expectant hope.

Awww... Have you moved to a no-Halloween zone? I'd miss all that.
Happy Halloween anyway,
I always shake my head at the older ones who just can't give up going door to door. Great 160. Thanks for playing.
Oh..No...I hope your eye site improves soon.
That's kinda sad. No more leftover candy?
I'm boycotting Halloween too. Bujt I like this, it's a different take on a long touched subject.
Happy Halloween,
wow, a novel idea of giving your reactions to the holiday.
cheers.
boo humbug
There should be no stealing at Halloween! I'm in favor of treats not tricks. :)
We had over 120 so far! My potluck is up.

Thanks a lot for the contribution,
Happy November,
short, nice..
Grinchilicious!
Nice movement past the Halloween ghouls....
That made me sad for the expectant little creatures. :))
Seriously, Grinch should be made to live in isolation!!! He is like the Dementor from Harry Potter...sucking away the soul from a being! Grrrrrinch!!!!!!!!
But I still am one of those little creatures, still watching expectant hope...
A very nicely done 160!!!
