A horror story with a funny punch line. Gotta admit cliches come in handy. So Bobby's soul craves bones. I followed him into the cemetery and pointed out the graves he should dug up--all the fans who blocked me. LOL.

Halloween poetry and Dean - now there is the ideal marriage :-)
excellent use of internal rhyme and enjambment to create good flow from line to line
good touches of alliteration throughout
moon's light - add apostrophe for possessive
I am laughing at loud with the play on words with bone to pick that ends your wonderful Halloween tale - what great fun this is :-) and as I would expect, a terrific multi-media presentation. Brooke

Dean, this is fantastic. From the music, to the picture in the background, to your descriptive poem. Loved it all. And such an interesing story you tell. Great job and good luck in the contest.

Dean , this write is so full of pure and near rhymes and the layers of intrigue are penned masterfully. The humorous note at the end ties the write together in a ironic way. Nice wording. Nice. :0 GracieAnn

Comment from Cindy Warren
You've given me some stiff competition. This is a very spooky tale with wonderful rhyme and rythm. The picture and music are the perfect compliments for it.

Thanks, Wendy, I really appreciate you having a look at it, as well as your awesome review. I traditionally don't do very well in contests voted on by the Fanstory Committee, having won only one out of countless entries. But, it is for Halloween, and I simply couldn't make myself pass it up. I do wish you the very best in the contest, sincerely!

I need to figure out who this Wendy is. I get that a lot, and Christy, too. LOL I don't win contests, either. Maybe this time.

Heh, oops! My apologies, Cindy. I guess I need to always keep my reading glasses handy when I review and reply. How and the heck did I get "Wendy" from "Cindy?" Oh, have mercy!...

Great, great, great! I don't have a six but it sure deserves one. Wonderful job in coming up with this perfect masterpiece of haunting story telling in poetic form.

Comment from ravenblack
I give up. You win. Great story but really enjoyed the rhythm and rhyme of the piece. Some people really go to great lengths for the best costume. A bone to pick with this town- the humor in that line cements this as a legend or tale, drawing the reader back from the horror to see it as such. So many excellent word choices, my favorite- quiet, quilted valley. Out of sixes or you would have one.

Thanks, RB. Six or no, I certainly appreciate your generous rating and fantastic review, my friend!
Comment from Margaret Snowdon
When in my twenties, I had to cut through a graveyard one late evening because I missed the bus - it wasn't that dark
and the stones looked more white than grey -- but I have to
admit I shot through pretty quick.
This is an amazing story in a poem, Dean - but you never disappoint - you should be making a fortune through your
writing --
I'd give you a six every time - here's my last one this week.

First of all, your selection of music really set the mood for such a creative write. Your unique style and descriptive word choices captures the readers attention and holds it through from beginning to end. I have no corrections or suggestions.Good work. Rhyming scheme is very well presented and adds even more personality to your work:)

Your work is just beyond compare! I always find such originality both in the poem, which was brilliant by the way, and in its presentation. This art work is a thing of beauty and the music is perfect too. Where did you come up with that gorgeous picture? It is just beautiful. Phenomenal entry. I loved the experience.

Thanks, emjaihammond, and an "experience" is precisely what I try so hard to create for my readers. Rather than just reading my poetry, I want them to be able to live it!
Thanks so much again...
