           A SPOOKY HALLOWEEN DREAM

                     By Ra c h el  Ko k o s o v a , Gr a de 8

         You get  a feeling; somet hing is wat ching you
         Looking around, you see not hing but  darkness,

         Cont inuing t hrough t he cemet ery wit h worries,

         You hear a howl in t he background; you begin t o shiver,
         An eerie sound comes from behind a t ree,

         You begin t o walk fast er and fast er unt il

         You t rip on a branch and hear noises surrounding you
         Noises you have never heard before,

         You see a shadow creeping up on you

         You fear t hat  t his will be t he end of you
         A t ouch on your shoulder and you scream

         When t o find out  it ?s only a dream.
