Happy Halloween! Blessed Samhain! Celebrate the different, remember those who have passed. Love each other. Live well!

My favorite trickster — My favorite Treat, from Halloween a few years ago

Trick:

Hot chocolate sounded great
Ordered it from the web
Didn’t notice the asterisk
100,000 Scovilles later
The trick revealed itself to me!

Treat:

Your love is the treat
My heart desires
Well, that plus
CHOCOLATE

Your Turn

**THEMES: “Trick” or “Treat”

This week’s prompt is a two prompts in one. I challenge you to share a piece about either Trick or Treat. (Of course, other Halloween/Samhain pieces work too!) I had this idea early this summer. I hope you find it as intriguing and fun as I did!

Share your own one-line poem on the theme as a response to this post, or write a stand-alone piece if you prefer. Tag your piece “One Line” and, if you have a stand-alone poem, be sure to leave a link in the response section below.

Have a question about the One Line project? Read our submission rules!

Thanks to our lovely host, Kathy Jacobs and the entire Chalkboard team.
