Halloween!!!

It's the cat in the hat and we're off to have fun
To get candy and sugar and walk 'round with Mum!


Witches and spiders and critters abound
Smiling and laughing and acting like clowns
This sweet purple witch was so pretty and sweet
A lovelier ghoul you're not likely to meet


And a princess wheeled 'round in her chariot on wheels
and even a witch wearing spiders who squeal!

But the Cat in the hat was just biding his time
till we went trick or treating in weather so fine

We knocked on the doors with a rat-a-tat-tat
And they gave us some candy, just...like...that
Then the cat went and sat in a great electric chair
that the bald guy had said would curl up his hair
But the cat was just tired and wanted to sit
and re-energize his tired little body for a bit

The crowds thronged the streets and were laughing with glee
at each decorated house, yard and garden, and tree!

A quick stop for sugar was the order of the night
it helped to add energy to this small fading light
Soon the Cat and the witch (who was now a princess)
Found themselves a bit tired so they sat down to rest
The Halloween Eve had drawn to a end
and these sweet little people off to bed we did send
But just before midnight a strange creature appeared
It was Mummy who somehow had grown quite the beard!
Now leave us a note, to show you had fun
looking at our great pictures of the cat hatted one!

The kid is a cutie, no doubt about that,
The best looking ever cat in the hat.
