If You've Never by Elsie M. Fowler

If you've never seen an old witch
Riding through the sky,
Or never felt big bat's wings
Flopping, as they fly . . .
If you've never touched a white thing
Gliding through the air,
And knew it was a ghost because
You got a dreadful scare . . .
If you've never heard the night owls,
Crying, "whoo-whoo-whoo?"
And never jumped at pumpkin eyes
Gleaming at you . . .
If all of these exciting things
You've never heard nor seen,
Why then, you've missed a lot of fun,
Because . . . that's Halloween!
