Aw, sweetie - check the video - it’s not scary at all!
The kids were snuggled tightly against their mother
The only light was dimly lit
And it was thundering and lightening outside.
As I got to this very tense moment where the poem reads....
'there came a rap, rap, rapping
At my chamber door'....
Someone pounded on our front door with three loud raps!
The kids and I all screamed, and almost hit the ceiling in total shock!
(It was a neighbor wanting to borrow some sugar!)
So...........with this post, I fondly remember
A spooky night of closeness with my children,
And wish you ALL a 'spooky' Halloween!
"The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe
Written Halloween Night, 1845
