Is Halloween Dead?
Trick or treat, the night is dead.
Not one kid here to be fed.
It’s not ghosts nor spooks that scare.
Must be crime makes them beware.
I, when young, through streets would run.
Could not wait, for setting of sun.
Trick or treat, the sport has changed.
In control, parties arranged.
May be good, kids kept off street,
But miss ghouls, to my door beat.

Halloween has come and gone. I had only 3 groups of children come to my door, trick or treating. Every year we get less kids coming around. It started me wondering if the old style of celebrating this holiday is over. Are the children going to parties instead?
Did you pass out candy this year? Did your kids go door to door? Do you forego the door to door begging in favor of parties?
