Halloween is a warm lantern casting spindly shadows over the ground.

Halloween is creamy sweet pumpkin pie with a golden crust that crumbles in your mouth.

Halloween is moonlight slipping over your skin, feeling like a cloak of silver draped upon you.

Halloween is the sound of children laughing as they scamper across the street like the autumn leaves.

Halloween is the scent of chocolate and caramel that is left in your trick or treat bag when the candy is all gone.

Halloween is costumes and disguises and ghosts.

Halloween is the time to stay close to those who matter most.
