This one was awesome. Not sure if I'm supposed to like or comment, though.

When Billy Doc died
We turned him to #ash
Passed him all around
And all agreed to leave him about the world
Then send a photo.
Which joined others
In an album dubbed
Where the hell is Bill?

So far he's made it to 6 continents.

5 Little Witches
Riding on a broom. (fingers up)
Out on Halloween night
Underneath the moon (hand circle)
One fell off (spin index)
Squashed her hat (clap)
Had to walk home
With a spooky Black Cat

Hsssss (claws)

4 Little Witches..

A Haiku

Pumpkin bright orange
defaced to add a new face
Frightening us all.
